Yes, schema generation (used for JSON Schema as well as Avro schema)
relies in `JsonSerializer` that type uses, in particular method
"acceptJsonFormatVisitor()". You would need to register a custom
serializer for `ObjectId`. You can have a look at how existing
standard serializers implement this method -- it's not a very
interface but it's the way to do it.

Hope this helps,
