Generic encoding with field names

[kirelagin]

Currently the generic encoding turns records into simple sequences of fields.

Would it make sense to change the encoding for records or provide an alternative encoding that will store records as maps, similar to what aeson does?

Yes, it should be an option.

[epoberezkin]

As long aeson does not become dependency :)

[iphydf]

It won't. The config object can be used here to select that option. All the info is in Generic already, so it can easily be done (even without TH).
