33 // - union types (but replaced with 'choices')
34 // - number.maxDecimal
37 // The following properties are not applicable to the interface exposed by
48 // There are also these departures from the JSON Schema proposal:
49 // - null counts as 'unspecified' for optional values
50 // - added the 'choices' property, to allow specifying a list of possible types
52 // - by default an "object" typed schema does not allow additional properties.
53 // if present, "additionalProperties" is to be a schema against which all
54 // additional properties will be validated.
