Actually the second example didn't work. I've updated the DIP and 
added (and this time tested...) an archaic serialization system 
that shows more clearly what's the point.

It should be quite straightforward to test. The lexer is rarely 
modified so I doubt there's ever be any conflict when rebasing to 
master.
