Allow registering custom input types. This seems really useful from a security standpoint: when coercing input to a Hack type, the GraphQL type itself can verify that the viewer has access to the resource using global context.
I haven't done any work to make defining custom types ergonomic. You have to subclass
NamedTypeand then useTNamedInputTypeandTNonNullableType. We could definitely make this nicer.I'm also not sure this works as-is with clients. For example,
ChannelIDis a new scalar type which takes a string and outputs a Channel object. Will clients understand that when they seeChannelID, they should provide a string?
