I think a reasonable fix for this would be to permit the user to register a
handler to be notified whenever an unknown property is encountered. Perhaps
this:
interface UnknownFieldHandler {
void handle(JsonObject object, String name, JsonElement value);
}

Then we could build in a few implementations: one that ignores unknown
fields, one that logs unknown fields, and one that throws on unknown
fields. Users could configure their GSON to be as strict or forgiving as
necessary.

It is good to get object instance, but also is useful information about
character position.

A handler might not be very Gsonic, but some way to let the Gson client
know that extraneous metadata existed in the subject JSON would be useful.

https://code.google.com/p/google-gson/issues/detail?id=188

This would be tremendously useful. I'm on a project where we're moving to
GSON to parse a large document that has a ton of optional fields that only
show up sometimes. There's not much documentation on what fields can show
up, so I'm testing by running the parser against vast swaths of these
documents.

But, without some way to spit out what GSON is skipping it's hard to tell
that I've missed parsing a field.

This is a very needed feature for me too.
