Hello Martin, yeah, that looks like what I had in mind. And yeah, translating to/from proto is always a bit of verboseness somewhere, here's how we try to minimise the verboseness (serializer impl): https://github.com/akka/akka/blob/release-2.3/akka-persistence/src/main/scala/akka/persistence/serialization/MessageSerializer.scala#L51
Sadly, the serializers that are slick and nice to work with, don't usually have versioning/evolution built in from what I see available... Kryo is fast and using it is great, but no versioning / anything built in => no-go for this use case (IMO at least).
