Is this also planned for the package?
I also have to use a specific serialisation format. I guess we could both simply use putWord8, but then we'll probably lose most of the benefits of using the library. Perhaps we could think about introducing some "encoding contexts", with a default encoding that can be automatically derived, but also with the ability to create one's own encodings?
