> In Python, validation of a datum by the schema was done in {{avro.io.validate}} function.
> The {{avro.io.validate}} function is a complex, recursively-called switch statement.
> Instead of calling a two-argument {{avro.io.validate}} with a Schema object and a datum, it is easier to understand and extend if they are one-argument methods on the schema.
> I (Jeremy) have written a patch that implements {{validate}} methods on Schema objects. This patch will form the prerequisite for AVRO-1265 (see "easier to extend" above).
