The current implementation of serialization has some limitations when handling contained data that I would like to remove. By contained data, I mean data that exists inside the allocated boundary of a containing object that is also being serialized. I've got another problem which required a definition of "contained data" only I called it "iterior data". However, then I remembered:
http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2006/01/99387.php which suggests "subobject" maybe a better term. Would it be desirable to use "subobject" in your description instead of "contained data" in order to avoid a proliferation of aliased terms? [snip]
