Hi Nick,
thank you very much for working on this one! I would be interesting to known 
more about the reasoning for this change. Would you mind describing it a bit 
more?

I'm having concerns that this patch will allow automatic conversion from Long 
to Int that might lead to data loss without user knowing that. It also seems 
that the issue might be easily workarounded by explicitly using --map-java-type 
argument that will allow the advance users to overcome the issue, but still 
won't do any implicit conversions.
