David Leangen commented on FELIX-5332:
--------------------------------------
Hmmm. Maybe I should not have acted so quickly.
I am finding that this is more difficult than I'd thought because of generic
types. If there is a generic type nested deep in the structure, it gets
deserialised as a Map, which causes a ClassCastException in the client code.
This leads me to believe that the _metadata information may be necessary for
all generic types.
I'll experiment a bit more.
