Jacques Nadeau commented on DRILL-19:
-------------------------------------

I'd suggest using embedded schema instead.  Seems more fail-fast which is what 
I am kind of striving for with this whole hetergenous data disaster.  We just 
define a standard "embedded schema" message type.  The two fields are bytes and 
protobufdef.  And the repeated is of that message type.  Basically "leave for 
another day"  Decode if you want.  I think it makes handling decoding much 
simpler, especially if we're not actually interested in the value at this time.
