Suggestion for an option to allow properties without keys only in a specific class

[GMQS]

Currently, the enableFlexibleCasting() option allows accepting partially missing properties, but it significantly compromises safety because it applies to all properties of all classes within the target data structure.

I would like to mark specific properties in specific classes to allow partial absence. The motivation behind this suggestion is that while it is natural for an API to have missing properties, I want to standardize types in the server implementation.

Is it realistic to implement such a feature in the future?
For example, one approach could be to identify such properties by adding annotations in the Doc comment to explicitly permit their absence:

/**
 * @param int|null $age?
 */
public function __construct(int | null $age) {
}

However, this might not be practical as it would require changes to the Doc parser.

Another idea I came up with is adding an option to the MapperBuilder class to mark specific properties:

$mapper = (new MapperBuilder())->allowUndefinedProperties([
    ["class" => A::class, "methods" => ["method1", "method2"]],
    ["class" => B::class, "methods" => ["method1", "method2"]],
])->mapper();

Hello there, sorry for the late answer. Maybe I don't understand correctly your need, but couldn't you be using default parameter values? Something like:

public function __construct(int | null $age = null) {}

This might be what I was looking for. Thanks!
