Yes I was thinking more in terms of the times I did this type of thing to support nested typed objects from raw json, more than simple VOs. Not so much in terms of using reviver, but going through from json -> generic object -> typed object with most of the support for the last part being in the abstract base class, and extra field mappings to complex field types defined in subclasses for specific fields. It was maintainable at the individual class level, but still quite complicated. Poor man's amf.
Probably not relevant here for simple VOs.
