Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-368:
-----------------------------------

+1

Note that, post AVRO-160, the sync marker is no longer in the metadata, but 
immediately follows the metadata, terminating the header and prefixing the 
first block, so that all blocks are now bracketed by sync markers.  So 
"avro.schema" and "avro.codec" are currently the only reserved data file 
metadata keys.

> Reserve avro.* in object container files, and rename existing reserved words.

> We propose to move "codec", "schema", and "sync" into "avro.codec", 
> "avro.schema", and "avro.sync", and furthermore reserve all avro.* names in 
> the object container file specification.

> Container Files?" on avro-dev.)
