> This means you can construct fields with invalid extension type information (the extension type in the metadata does not support the updated data type of the field). I'm not sure what the best way is to solve this yet, so I don't know if we even need a breaking change to fix it - if we even want to "fix" this. Maybe one way to fix it would be to reset the extension type information, if any, when the DataType was changed -- then callers could explcitly try and re-set it if they wanted to preserve the type info 🤔 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
