Jacques Nadeau commented on DRILL-19:
-------------------------------------
In the heterogeneous situation, you should just capture the array as type
heterogeneous and then encode the schema information with each element in the
array.
Random thought, what do you think about making your schema code output a proto
idl? For the heterogeneous array option, I'd use a type of repeated bytes
with the assumption that each bytes value will be the schema followed by the
data.
