I think this option should be pursued. I guess you're joking about
transient, though, because it's already been hijacked by the
java.io.Serializable interface, and is used quite a lot in Beans and EJBs
and anything else that is serialized. I don't think the two uses coincide.
You'll have to hijack something else.
