I have several structs that I need to serialize and deserialize into/from TOML files.

Each TOML file can contain similar data (think data libraries), and they will all be combined into one master library data structure in the code.

I need to be able to track which data file each struct instance came from, so I can write them back to the correct file when saved (IE, can't just use a naive serialize implementation, which would dump everything into one file).

I should be able to do this with a wrapper function, and serde(skip) attribute on the filepath field, but was curious if there was a more elegant way to do this via Serde.

Thanks in advance!
