> Manually registering a {{LogicalTypeFactory}} is cumbersome, but necessary if creating the factory requires constructor parameters.
> For most cases though, a {{LogicalTypeFactory}} gets all the information it needs from the schema. This makes it a good candidate for a SPI (using the Java 6 {{ServiceLoader}} class). The PR demonstrates that this is quite easy, because the interface already supports registering a {{LogicalTypeFactory}} without any additional information.
