Its a good example in that you are creating a new DataFormat instance
and using that - thats all I meant.

Maybe we need some kinda endpoint that lets you set arbitrary nested
properties on a bean? e.g. it could take a Map or List of Maps and
make instances of a certain type - then set the properties on the bean
using introspection? I guess its only gonna be useful for taking data
from CSVs; but who knows maybe this could be useable for other
scenarios, like taking arbitrary JSON or something?
