I briefly scanned some docs, but I'm still not sure I follow why this needs to be in our domain. It says PdxWrapper is "for domain objects that you cannot or do not want to modify".
Why can't the application create an opaque wrapper around the object that cannot be modified and register that wrapper with the serialization registry - just like other serializable classes without us being the wiser that it is a wrapper?
