I was planning to add (if Sven doesn't object) some sort of unbound slot handling (since I would expect unbound slots to remain unbound after unserialization, and currently the serialization code just dies if a slot is unbound.
So I agree that something needs to be done about unbound slots, but I don't agree that ignoring them is the best solution.
