Nick Coghlan added the comment:
Can I vote for something like "__builtin__" as the protocol, rather than
something entirely specific to serialisation? As in "return the most
appropriate builtin type with the same value"? Then a converter
("operator.builtin"?) could coerce builtin subclasses to their base classes
by default, rather than needing to implement the protocol on every type.
Such a design would need a PEP, of course.
