Thanks, Alex. I've taken random example from plumatic.schema wiki to
quickly illustrate the question. In my actual use case I dynamically
generate schemas based on hundreds of model Java classes (beans) with
mutual references so I need recursion (and also some way to model
inheritance, that was is achieved with "conditional" in plumatic). Will try
to implement the same with spec.
