 * A dummy superclass to support GWT serialization of the element types of an {@link

 *
 * <p>For details about this hack, see {@link GwtSerializationDependencies}, which takes the same
 * approach but with a subclass rather than a superclass.
 *
 * <p>TODO(cpovirk): Consider applying this subclass approach to our other types.
