Description

Small feature request: The mutable serializer has a hard-coded default of JSON. If a user defines a custom map of mime types to serializers that doesn't include JSON, they are still forced into that default. We should make the default/fallback configurable.

Research direction

Start by locating Serializer::Mutable and the code that applies its hard-coded JSON fallback, then inspect how serializer configuration is passed through the project. Done means the fallback can be configured and a custom MIME-type-to-serializer map works when it omits JSON.
