There are plenty of fields of
message
type. I propose to explicitly write in docs whether the field MUST be set.Where it is not written otherwise, I suggest to require field presence. Later we can relax the requirement, which would be a backwards compatible change.
These requirements will reduce the number of uncertainties when writing software.
Note: this only applies to fields in requests/responses.
