Using `Optional[str]` instead of just `str` will let the editor help you detect errors where you could be assuming that a value is always a `str`, when it could actually be `None` too.

`Optional[Something]` is actually a shortcut for `Union[Something, None]`, they are equivalent.

This also means that in Python 3.10, you can use `Something | None`:

class CipherSuite private constructor(
  /**
   * Returns the Java name of this cipher suite. For some older cipher suites the Java name has the
   * prefix `SSL_`, causing the Java name to be different from the instance name which is always
   * prefixed `TLS_`. For example, `TLS_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_RC4_40_MD5.javaName()` is
   * `"SSL_RSA_EXPORT_WITH_RC4_40_MD5"`.
   */
  @get:JvmName("javaName") val javaName: String,
) {
  @JvmName("-deprecated_javaName")

  // `distinguisherMethod` defines how to compute the flow distinguisher for requests that match this schema.

  // `rules` describes which requests will match this flow schema. This FlowSchema matches a request if and only if

h3. Plugins need a specific metadata model

Each application will have its own model for plugins. Much of this model will be common across applications but there will always be issues specific to a particular applications’s plugins. Some of the issues that need to be taken into consideration:

* Plugin dependencies
* Plugin resources like JavaScript files or images

In GitHub, the template will guide you to write the right question so that you can more easily get a good answer, or even solve the problem yourself even before asking. And in GitHub I can make sure I always answer everything, even if it takes some time. I can't personally do that with the chat systems. 😅
