I think that's okay. On a large network this won't be a problem. Freenet
isn't supposed to permanently hold data. Even if we wrote it out in human
readable ASCII, some changes to the DataStore would still break it, such
as adding and deleting fields.

I don't think what we'll gain is enough to merit the added complexity of
rolling our own serailization. Although if we did, acme has some
serialization code that we could use.
