Sorry. I don't get the point here. If we invoke a factory class at time of reconstitution, we will have totally freedom to map the incoming data to the object properties. Another ingredient will be dependency injection (Daniel Pötzinger is currently working on an implementation for 4.x afaik).

Do you participate in T3DD10?
