Just to make sure: you absolutely do not need such POJO property; Jackson does not need it. Since `type` is piece of metadata it does exist in json but isn't (by default) assumed to be needed as payload data. So if you don't need it, just drop the getter; value should be written by default as type id. Use of EXISTING_PROPERTY was added to allow alternatively to consider type id as both metadata and real data; it is bit unwieldy -- ideally it would just auto-detect -- but for now the only reliable way. Perhaps in future we can improve this to have smoother handling.
