Only big concern is FieldDefinition getting rid of most of the typing in place for fields.

Is this just to get around docassemble needing a server to be running? What do we call that ends up using this?

Hmm. Might be an artifact from the this_thread bug [that I solved better by upgrading to latest AssemblyLine]. I'll look more closely

Fix #558
Going to open this as a draft first. This was already helpful for me this week; I used it within Codex to generate some predictable AssemblyLine code as the basis for Codex to then finish up the job. But I want to make sure the API is solid before merging.
A logical next step is to refactor the Python code in various places in the YAML code and invoke the same pathways from the Python module instead, but I think that's best for a separate PR.
