Currently it seems there is no way to define ui options via uiSchema for the definitions. So where using definitions we can remove the repetition in schema, we are still forced to repeat ui options for each field in uiSchema.

This is indeed a current limitation. Note that meanwhile you can leverage good old JavaScript to avoid too much verbosity: https://jsfiddle.net/yx09e5gp/1/
But I agree it'd be better to natively support uiSchema for definitions.
@n1k0 How would you solve an uiSchema for a recursive sample like References/Recursive references in playground?
Merging this into #701.
