This is for a serialization library where third party types need to be

be serializable.
You don't need to annotate it:
void serialize(T)(T something);
You have access to all the CT reflection stuff, and can generate the
necessary runtime reflection with that.
I already have a fully working serialization library. I'm hoping to make
it better. The problem is when (de)serializing through a base class
reference. Currently you need to register the subclass with the
serializer. If T is Base and the actually runtime type is Sub it won't
work.
If we get to the point where adding one line of code inside or
(preferably) outside a type to make it serializable, that would be great.
