> The Json encoding implemented in Java does not encode unions as intended.  In particular:
>   - branches are labeled with their Java type enum name (all caps) rather than their Json type name (lowercase)
>   - branches for named types (records, enums, fixed) are labeled with the type rather than the name
>   - nulls are labelled -- a null value for a union should be untagged
