> According to Section 5.4 in
> http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-zyp-json-schema-03.html, the default value of
> "additionalProperties" is an empty schema which allows any value for
> additional properties. Therefore, all WebHDFS JSON responses allow any
> additional property since the WebHDFS REST API do not specify
> additionalProperties.
> However, it is better to clarify in the API that all JSON respsonses may
> contain additional properties.
