$tree may be an arbitrarily complex structure and I just want to replace some of the objects inside at serialization time.

Your code can only be used to replace the top object.

    Not quite understand. replace() sub here _can_ replace just _some_ of the inner objects of $tree
      Oh, but then, I would have to traverse and clone the data structure myself, something that is far for easier in the general case.
