Handling optional PB fields when re-encoding the (decoded) response back into a 
PB.

Correct. In our current setup, all the components have the same version.
Is there a good way to handle this other than having test coverage for this 
(which I'm not even sure how) and catching when new optional fields are added?

> KeyProviderUri is not available in 2.7 so when 2.7 clients contact with 3.2
