Scott Carey commented on AVRO-435:
----------------------------------
I think that this is best done at the API level with serialization unchanged.
Something like Doug's proposal should work.
For cross-language purposes farther down the road, we might want to have some
support for this in schema metadata that is not language specific. Perhaps
something like.
{"type": "array", "items": "int", "subtype": "set"}
(or, "unique": true ?)
Languages could optionally do something with that information.

> Cassandra uses Set as a return type for some methods. It would be nice to
> not have to use a List as a workaround.
