Are the data_schemas an acceptable solution? Were the original schemas automatically generated? Does this necessitate any changes to other code?
Allowing nullable properties can also be done in a json schema. The current solution using filtering is more lenient, but in my opinion it might be desirable to at some point switch to using oneof(null, validType) everywhere applicable, to adhere more closely to the standard.
I did not find a way to validate the dates properly. A custom TypeChecker does not fit this use case, as we could accept datetimes as string everywhere, but not only when the format contains 'date'. Using a custom FormatChecker also does not work, as the datetime in type:string format:datetime fields already fails on the typecheck. This left filtering as the most convenient solution.
