Regarding serialization with JanusGraph:

I think JanusGraph's StandardSerializer has support for Lists - in the 
xxxArraySerializer classes (registered as 22 thru 30). But I don't see anything 
in StandardSerializer that handles Maps....which seems to contradict your email 
so is slightly confusing. Presumably we (Atlas) work our way through the Map 
delegating serialization of each entry to the appopriate serializer?

I don't think there is anything (as standard) in JanusGraph's 
StandardSerializer that would help with BigDecimal, BigInteger or 
TypeCategorySerializer - but for any Atlas specific classes we could register 
Custom Serializers with JanusGraph - i.e. located above offset 100. 
TypeCategory is only a skinny layer over EnumSerializer, so not sure it is 
worth the effort? I think we could just keep our existing Atlas 
BigDecimalSerializer, BigIntegerSerializer and TypeCategorySerializer.



In terms of Atlas classes/methods:

Why do we have both GraphHelper:getMapValueProperty() and 
EntityGraphMapper:getMapValueProperty()? Should one delegate to the other?
Also, for anything that is not a Reference, one of the above methods explicitly 
handles List and Map property values and returns List.class and Map.class 
objects, whereas the other returns an Object.class. Should this be consistent 
across both methods?
