Comment:

 Unless theres a more fundamental addressing of the serialization API,
 aimed at making it *generally* usable and extendable for Web APIs I don't
 see any value in pushing the scope of the serializers as they now stand.
 Right now the use case for them should be for fixture loading and saving
 and nothing else. There are better tools out there for generally
 extendable serialization schemes (REST framework, tastypie, etc).

 Could we address tickets like this? Sure, but not until and unless we're
 doing that in the context of a fully fledged serializer API that's
 properly suitable for meeting the use cases of both Web APIs *and* fixture
 generation.
