Currently, RowJson.java doesn't have support for deserialising JSON with fields missing - it fails, even if the beam schema is nullable. This is often a problem for reading JSON as nulls are very commonly represented by omitting the field. Additionally, for this reason, not writing nulls is a reasonable when converting from Beam rows to JSON.
This would help to allow https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-7624 to be implemented.
