Review comment:
> About the compatibility, there are several compatibility modes in schema
registry. It can be set for each topic and you can set BACKWARD compat
Right, but Hive will likely only work properly if the config really is set
to backwards, or at the least, the schema provided can read all the data for
the offsets that are provided.
> with literally different schemas
Maybe if more schema data was exposed, this would be easier to handle? For
example, the Avro namespace + top-level record name?
