Thanks for this @trenneman!

I don't want to clutter up this issue to much but I'm trying out the new Elm codegen to see how it works with one of our existing APIs. We have one data type that that contains a field which returns a dictionary of type Dict String String and is exposed as an object in the Swagger API.

From looking at the PR and trying it out, this doesn't look like it's supported. Is something that could be added? Let me know too if you think it sounds like we're actually representing the data incorrectly on the Swagger side.

You're welcome, @mcfilib!

Sure, this can be added, I didn't need it before so that's why it's not in yet. Can you send me a simple example of a (simplified) swagger file you would like to convert?
