Serialization should be done the same way for all types
Originally by @Artur-
Currently serialization/deserialization code is generated on the client side for SharedState types and types they refer to. Some types like Map, List, arrays are handled in other parts of the framework. It would be much clearer if all types were handled in the same way i.e. one serializer class per type. There is no need to generate the serializers for standard types but they should implement the same interface as the generated serializers.

Hello there!
It looks like this issue hasn't progressed lately. There are so many issues that we just can't deal them all within a reasonable timeframe.
There are a couple of things you could help to get things rolling on this issue (this is an automated message, so expect that some of these are already in use):
- Check if the issue is still valid for the latest version. There are dozens of duplicates in our issue tracker, so it is possible that the issue is already tackled. If it appears to be fixed, close the issue, otherwise report to the issue that it is still valid.
- Provide more details how to reproduce the issue.
- Explain why it is important to get this issue fixed and politely draw others attention to it e.g. via the forum or social media.
- Add a reduced test case about the issue, so it is easier for somebody to start working on a solution.
- Try fixing the issue yourself and create a pull request that contains the test case and/or a fix for it. Handling the pull requests is the top priority for the core team.
- If the issue is clearly a bug, use the Warranty in your Vaadin subscription to raise its priority.
Thanks again for your contributions! Even though we haven't been able to get this issue fixed, we hope you to report your findings and enhancement ideas in the future too!
