// serializer except that, as it's currently implemented, the proto serializer
// can't be used in internal tests (i.e test in the pilosa package) because the
// proto package imports the pilosa package, so it would result in circular
// imports. We really need all the pilosa types to be in a sub-package of
// pilosa, so that both proto and pilosa can import them without resulting in
// circular imports.
