my $round_trip = $dss->serialize( $dss->deserialize_pathval(
'a[0]' => { your => 'hash' }
) );
# Returns:
$round_trip = {
'a[0].your' => 'hash',
};
# Now protect the hash
my $round_trip = $dss->serialize( $dss->deserialize_pathval(
'a[0]' => \{ your => 'hash' }

# Returns:

Sparse arrays and memory usage
Since arrays within paths are based on indexes, there's a potential
security issue with large indexes causing abnormal memory usage. In
Perl, these two arrays would have drastically different memory
footprints:
my @small;
$small[0] = 1;
my @large;
$large[999999] = 1;
This can be mitigated by making sure the Path style you use will limit
the total digits for array indexes. Parse::Path handles this on all of
its paths, but it's something to be aware of if you create your own path
classes.
TODO
This module might split off into individual split serializers, but so
far, this is the only one "out in the wild".
