Slot: schema_type

State that the subject is an instance of a particular schema class. Typically, no explicit value needs to be assigned to this slot, because it matches the class type of a particular record. However, this slots can be used as a type designator of a schema element for validation and schema structure handling purposes. This is used to indicate specialized schema classes for properties that accept a hierarchy of classes as their range.
