Research direction

Start by tracing the implementation behind fieldWithPath("uid").type(...) and how JsonFieldType is currently asserted. Define completion as accepting multiple permitted types while rejecting actual JSON types that match none of them, and verify the behavior with the relevant existing assertion tests.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

type: enhancement

The following code produce a nice output in the type column, but It does not perform the assertion:

fieldWithPath("uid").type(Arrays.asList(JsonFieldType.STRING, JsonFieldType.NULL));

Is there a better way to do it?
