> I'd like to bring something that bothers me : whenever you get an Id from a Mailbox, you can only call Object methods.
> It makes some code rely on toString() call in case of serialization.
> If you put aside some special types, toString is not supposed to return a stable and meaningful value.
> I'd like to make Message and Mailbox use a bounded parameters. This parameter would extend an Id interface, and this interface could have a serialize method.
> Comments welcome (and patch is coming soon)
