> Our project has a use-case for Bindy where we would like to define a Model POJO that has less fields than the resulting CSV would have. We tried to achieve this by defining a model with the proper annotations and using the "pos" parameter in the DataField annotations.
> For example you might want to define one field at position 4 and another at position 6. The resulting CSV should then contain an empty field at position 5. We used BeanIO previously and it supported this use-case. Adding dummy fields is fine in simple cases but when a CSV exceeds 100 fields, of which a couple dozen are used, it becomes very cumbersome to handle.
> Specifically the unmarshal obviously works fine, but we are trying to marshal in this case. We are transitioning to using Bindy for all CSV handling and ran into this problem. I believe this would be useful generally.
> Sample project that illustrates this case: [https://github.com/jwwallin/bindy-csv-sample]
