        The class attributes ROOT_CONTAINER (default "data") and
        ITEM_CONTAINER (default "item") can be overwritten by derived
        classes; if ROOT_CONTAINER is `None`, the usually generated
        container element is omitted, the same is true for ITEM_CONTAINER.

        PRIVATE_PREFIXES is a list of prefixes of tagnames that are
        treated as private, i.e. things that should not be serialized.
        Default is to omit all properties starting with an underscore.

        TAG_MAP is a translation table for tag names, and is empty by
        default. It can also be used to suppress certain properties by
        mapping a tag name to `None`.
