>
> The PType#getDetachedValue method performs a deep copy (if needed) in order
> to allow DoFns to hold on to values that have been passed through them (for
> example, in join functions).
> The WritablePType class uses the built-in input and output MapFns in the
> PType to handle this deep copying, but the input and output MapFns don't get
> initialized (i.e. initialize isn't called on them) after they are
> deserialized along with the DoFn that is using them. In some rare cases (at
> least for tuples), this can result in NullPointerExceptions or other
> nastiness.
