Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-23:
----------------------------------

This is all an optimization to avoid deserializing while merging, right?  Can't 
we deserialize as fast as we can read off disk anyway?  We can simply read 
using the lastest version of the schema and re-write things.

If you really believe you must have this optimization, then you could build it 
into your container.  Rather than using a union, keep an explicit array of 
schemas that you've seen.


> Schema.toString() fails for a union of versioned records.
