When serializing a class with a property that is a Dictionary where the keys are not strings the keys are serialized with a redundant "_t" element

      For example, an instance of this class:

      public class Point

      { public int X; public int Y; }

      public class C

      { public ObjectId Id; public Dictionary<Point, int> Points; }

      is serialized as:

      > db.test.find()
      { "_id" : ObjectId("4de7fc1fe447ad107cce92da"), "Points" : [
      [

      { "_t" : "Point", "X" : 1, "Y" : 1 }

      ,
      1
      ],
      [

      { "_t" : "Point", "X" : 2, "Y" : 2 }

      ,
      2
      ]
      ] }
      >

      But the "_t" values are redundant because the type of the key is known to be Point.
