This interface (as well as `JsonSerializable`) is incorrectly named. If =
I believe the manual, it is an =E2=80=9Dinterface for customized =
serializing=E2=80=9D; therefore it should have been called =
`CustomizedSerialization` or something like that.

If we use a new interface, at the very least, let its name match its =
function (or its function match its name).
