I think it would make sense to flag for serialization method -- rather than trying to pick or define a single serialization method for all clients, the clients simply flag with the method they used.
Most languages have libraries available to interpret most other languages' native serialization, so I think we can leverage that via callbacks and flexible data type flags.
