Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-104:
-----------------------------------

> Otherwise, I think it would be nice to implement reflection through a 
> separate abstraction where you allow clients to plug in their own 
> implementation in Avro.

Sure, one might make ReflectDatumReader and ReflectDatumWriter each contain a 
ReflectData instance, and add protected methods that create the schemas for 
each Java type.

> Reflective API can't handle nulls
