But lot of our tables are already created with using string / int as deleted fields and now to apply schema change on them with transform config is really operational. So that's why we want to get rid of the type check config validation or extend it for String / Number so that we can easily apply this deleteRecordColumn config for existing tables as well. nit: it will be a table config change, rather than a schema change in such a case. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
