consistent with the trait, but also important for things like tests.
   
   Well, but then it seems like the library is making assertions about what 
`Schema` equality means. 
   
   But yes, I do see your point that practically speaking removing `PartialEq` 
/ `Eq` implementations  would likely cause more pain than it was worth
   
   Making it easier (and clearly documented) to compare schemas with different, 
common ideas of equality (e.g. ignore list field names) I think would add 
significant value by avoiding seemingly unnecessary schema mismatch issues
