-----------------------------------------

Sorry, but I don't understand it yet. The {{NullableCoder}} delegates task to
inner coder so: it (inner) needs to write down the length. Also the context
passed to this (inner) coder must be nested because later someone can put other
elements.
{{(1 (4 abcd)) (0) (1 (1 3 key 5 value))}}
(/\ example of {{NullableCoder}} with {{StringUtf8Coder}} & {{KvCoder}})
Maybe I mixed something up. Sorry for bothering you and thanks in advance!

> NullableCoder should encode using the context given and not always use the
