d33bs opened a new pull request, #610: URL: https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/pull/610
### Rationale for this change The Parquet format did not say whether two sibling fields can have the same name. This can make `path_in_schema` ambiguous, because one path can match more than one field. ### What changes are included in this PR? This PR updates the Thrift schema comments to state that direct children of a group must have distinct names. Name comparison is case-sensitive. It also clarifies that `path_in_schema` must identify exactly one primitive field. ### Do these changes have PoC implementations? No. This is a specification clarification only.
