a non-intrusive method is required to implement serialization for classes that you don't want to change. For example, the library includes serialization for all STL containers with without changing STL itself. This would permit easy and optional addition of serialization to any class that might benefit from it >2) A most needed addition to the design is to provide a sort of "registry" object..... This has been a hot topic. It is really not possible to achieve the desired results.
