    * the StreamingMarshaller implementation might treat it differently. An example of reentrancy would be marshalling of MarshalledValue.
    * When sending or storing a MarshalledValue, a call to startObjectOutput() would occur so that the stream is open and
    * following, a 2nd call could occur so that MarshalledValue's raw byte array version is calculated and sent across.
    * This enables storing as binary on the receiver side which is performance gain. The StreamingMarshaller implementation could decide
