I'm trying to understand the motivation for the String based interface on
the execute method of DRPCClient.

http://nathanmarz.github.io/storm/doc/backtype/storm/utils/DRPCClient.html
String execute (String, String)

I have a topology that typically receives and outputs java objects.  In
order for me to call it with DRPC, do I need to layer on a marshaling layer
to translate String->POJO and back?

Would it be possible to change the signature to accept any type of object
and put it in the args field?
