09/19/2018, 1:22 PMthat is all fine when the json implementations only use reflection
i think this should be
body: Treified T : AnyNikky
09/19/2018, 1:25 PMthat would allow better registering of custom serializers on the kotlinx-serializer feature for se, since atm i can oly match by KClass<*> which dies when it encounters generics or arrays
