It's something that circumvents itself.  Investigate that
MeshSerializer creation more closely: the interior mesh gets
serialized *only* if the boundary_mesh object turns out to be
impossible to parallelize.  Use ParallelMesh for both objects and no
serialization is done and none is necessary.

It should be possible.  However here I mean "should" in the normative
sense of "if it doesn't work, that's a bug we need to fix", though,
*not* in the positive sense of "I've tested that and expect it to
work".
