> Avro records are represented as JSON objects in the JSON encoding (according to the Avro spec http://avro.apache.org/docs/1.5.4/spec.html#schema_record). The JSON spec (http://www.json.org/) states that "A [JSON] object is an unordered set of name/value pairs". However, the Java JsonDecoder fails to read a JSON object as an Avro record if its fields are not in the same order as the schema.
