Yes the `@class` bothered me a little as well, since now it doesn't really
describe a "Class". But I did not want to change, for consistency for GraphSON
v1.0 and I reused the `GraphSONTokens.CLASS`. So if it is ok, I'd be +1 for
`@type` actually.
Concerning BSON (or MsgPack) it probably is indeed a more efficient
serialization solution, however the goal of this PR is to optimize and improve
JSON. Implementing Graph-BSON is probably another topic adjacent to this one,
on which btw I'd be happy to collaborate as well.
