> I think that it would make a lot of sense for us to redefine the __isset interface of Java generated structs. With the changes in THRIFT-297, all TBase objects will now have the isSet generic method as well as isMyFieldSet per-field isset checkers. This gives the same kind of information as direct access to __isset as the public field does, but has the added advantage of hiding the information behind a method-based interface, freeing us to do things like THRIFT-115 and THRIFT-116 without breaking future clients. 
> Especially with the future proposition of making a release, now would be a great time to improve this interface.
