Comment (by nacin):

 "mixed" is a formal term used by PHP, phpdoc, etc. See
 http://us.php.net/manual/en/language.pseudo-
 types.php#language.types.mixed.

 We should simply add a note that the argument must be serializable if non-
 scalar. (Obviously, a scalar value is serializable, but I don't want
 someone to read the doc and get the idea that we serialize scalar values.)
