	 * Allows access to an underlying managed array, or a cached version of that array that can be serialized/deserialized.
	 *
	 * @note	
	 * This class can be in two states:
	 *	 - Linked - When the object has a link to a managed object. This is the default state when a new instance
	 *				of ManagedSerializableObject is created. Any operations during this state will operate directly
	 *				on the linked managed object.
	 *	 - Serialized - When the object has no link to the managed object but instead just contains cached object
	 *					and field data that may be used for initializing a managed object. Any operations during
	 *					this state will operate only on the cached internal data.
	 * You can transfer between these states by calling serialize(linked->serialized) & deserialize (serialized->linked).
