How to load asset with dependency without manually writing a complicated loader?

[Favouris]

Suppose I have a custom asset type:

#[derive(Asset, Deserialize)]
struct MyCustomAsset {
    images: Vec<Handle<Image>> // assset dependencies
}

and suppose I would like to load such an asset via serde_json (or whichever format) where the file looks like:

// Content of file "my_custom_asset.json"
{
   "images": [
        "path/to/image1.jpeg",
        "path/to/image2.jpeg"
    ]
}

Would the above be possible without needing to write an asset loader that manually deserialize and load each dependency?

Or to put it in other words, would it be possible to simply write something similar to let asset: MyCustomAsset = serde_json::from_slice(&bytes) in MyCustomAssetLoader and have the rest be automatically handled?
