I see where you're coming from here but the function `.fromJson` for for
`ArrayType`, `MapType`, `StructField`, and `StructType` is exposed to
developers so it _can_ be used. I have a strong hunch people do use it as it is
an easy way to generate and store schemas. I'm curious what it would take to
get this through? It's _seems_ like a fairly logical change.
