IIRC, then this would not solve one problem you described in an earlier 
post. Namely how a weak_ptr can be loaded before the first shared_ptr 
referencing the same object is loaded. As you stated, it seems that 
solving this problem *requires* that serialization users can assoicate 
arbitrary data with an archive during load.
