Ben Craig commented on THRIFT-2457:
-----------------------------------
Hopefully it helps in that we can tell the person building the v2 client that
their code won't work when sending to a v1 receiver. The difficulty is in
giving that warning when it is appropriate, and not spamming every user of
'float' with warnings that they don't care about.
We could try to figure out some way to convince a v1 receiver to skip 'float'
types though. I think that would require making 'float' look like an existing,
skippable type though. This is likely to be a difficult approach though,
because there isn't just one code base that has to be fooled, but dozens.
