Hi, I wanted ask regarding the decision to populate fields with default values, even if they do not appear in the encoded message. If I want to send a "patch" message, where I want to update just the provided fields, how can I do that with protobuf (without adding IsXXXSet for every field)?
Why not add another type, representing a default value? So the schematics would be, if the field is missing, it is null, and if the field exists, but with this "missing value" type, it will get the default value?
