Thanks [~gszadovszky] for the update and for considering this. As a committer
on other Apache projects, I really appreciate the thoughtful approach the
Parquet community takes on matters like this. Cheers.

>
> When the source is a protobuf3 message, and the target file is Parquet, all
> the default values are stored in the output parquet as `{{null`}} instead of
> the actual type's default value.
> For example, if the field is of type `int32`, `double` or `enum` and it
> hasn't been set, the parquet value is `{{null`}} instead of `0`. When the
> field's type is a `string` that hasn't been set, the parquet value is
> {{`null`}} instead of an empty string.
