Hi Bryan,
Thanks, this answers my question! So at the very least you'll have to
read in the raw bytes and hang on to them.

We do this with some of our Thrift-serialized types. We account for
this behavior explicitly in the ThrittWritable class and make it so
that we can read the serialized version off the wire completely by
prepending the size. Then, we can read in the raw bytes and hang on
to them for later as
