deserialization from the data that is present.
   
   But there is no such code. It means they are not recreated. I someone in 
future will write deserialization code - he can also remove `final` modifier.
   
   Moreover in classes `FormattedMessage`, `StringFormattedMessage` and 
`ParameterizedMessage`: code is already ready to have this fields `final` and 
`null`. Such fields are not serialized and not read from ObjectOutputStream.
   
   If you insist - I will remove final
