Doug Cutting commented on AVRO-80:
----------------------------------
The mixin annotations seem like they could be a useful pattern for Avro.
Thanks for pointing them out!
For this issue I just intend to switch the default mapping for strings and
arrays to use common, built-in Java types. I might even try to be clever and
map both Foo[] and ArrayList<Foo> to Avro arrays, or I might punt that to a
follow-on issue. Making it configurable with mixin annotations is definitely a
follow-on.

> Since 'reflect' implementation is expected to work with existing code, it
> should work with java types. For example it should work with java String
> instead of org.apache.avro.util.Utf8.
