   If iceberg itself does not plan to parse or understand the map, could a json blob be considered instead?
   
   For CSV and compression codecs, instead of putting such info into a custom map, I think having these be recognized as first-class known entities will help iceberg data to be consistently/correctly readable by various systems (spark, etc.).
