We should make it easy for people writing services to write programs that make use of application-defined types. In particular, they should not have to manually map between generic input and output types (such as json or xml) and application-defined types.

This relates to #558 and #329.

At the service object level for output, this is enabled by #606, which drops the requirement that the return value of resource methods is a subtype of error?. At the service object type level, this is dealt with by #609.
