Rclcpp seems to have implemented intra-process communication without serializing custom data types to ROS messages when the apropriate type adapters are used: ros2/rclcpp#1664, but this is not documented.

The type adapter is already used in the subscriber and publisher examples.

The demos repo contains an adapter for cv::Mat (header, implementation) which is used in cam2image.cpp

Thanks, appreciated. I put it on the list of things to look at during the Humble documentation/release process.
