Jeff Klukas commented on BEAM-3616:
-----------------------------------

Here's an additional relevant thread that discusses the need for versioning 
coders in order to allow adding new fields to existing classes:

> Ensure coders are updatable partially in a cluster (aka add versions to 
> coders)

> Long story short: seems being able to update a live stream is a constraint 
> beam must address. This implies no change in coder serialization. To do it 
> the only way is to put a marker (like a version) otherwise the live update 
> will be broken if part of a cluster is updated only.
> This task is about ensuring we support it.
