------------------------------------------------------------

As follow-up work, I plan to implement two features:
 # transferring comments from Thrift to the generated {{.proto}} files, and

 # supporting Protobuf variants—{*}proto2{*}, {*}proto3{*}, and {*}edition = 2023{*}—selectable via a generator property

> I would like to propose adding a Thrift → Protobuf generator to Apache Thrift. The generator would take .thrift IDL as input and produce equivalent .proto files, enabling teams to interoperate with Protobuf-based ecosystems while continuing to author schemas in Thrift.
> I plan to submit an initial draft PR for early feedback. Before opening the PR, I wanted to validate interest and design scope with maintainers.
>  
> I would appreciate your feedback. Thank you.
