Thanks Howard. So, a TypeConverter converts a string (e.g., the string-representation of some Object, for example, something persisted client-side) into the Object.
Am I right in assuming that the Object's type is added, so the correct TypeConverter can be chosen? Also, by what mechanism is the Object converted to a String (in the first place)?

A type converter is most likely being used to convert from a string to some server-side type. Perhaps you tried to update a property that is really an entity type? A stack trace would help narrow it down.
