Comment (by TimothyBlynJacobs):

 > Forgetting the JSON Schema spec for now (we have already diverged from
 JSON Schema),

 We haven't significantly diverged from JSON Schema. We are using the v3
 format for required properties, but everything else is proper. I've also
 been looking into supporting both v3 and v4 of required properties
 transparently.

 If we want to make `additionalProperties => false` the default everywhere,
 I'd be ok with that provided we allow a developer to pass their own
 `additionalProperties` value and it appears as `additionalProperties =>
 false` in the schema.

 If we agree on that, I can work up a patch to support that.
