		 * @brief	Initializes a field that returns a block of bytes. Can be used for serializing pretty much anything.
		 *
		 * @param	name		Name of the field.
		 * @param	uniqueId	Unique identifier for this field. Although name is also a unique
		 * 						identifier we want a small data type that can be used for efficiently
		 * 						serializing data to disk and similar. It is primarily used for compatibility
		 * 						between different versions of serialized data.
		 * @param	getter  	The getter method for the field. Cannot be null. Must be a specific signature: SerializableDataBlock(ObjectType*)
		 * @param	setter  	The setter method for the field. Can be null. Must be a specific signature: void(ObjectType*, SerializableDataBlock)	
		 * @param	flags		Various flags you can use to specialize how systems handle this field
