# Example use of code above. In practice, `collection_serializer.as_json` would
# automatically get called by the Rails hook. It would also need to inject the `user`
# because serializers can do different serialization based off of user access. It
# would also probably go through an adapter that would call `as_json` on the collection
# so that it could potentailly pass in includes or similar fields to limit serialization
# based off of only what the REST request wants.
