You only need some way to write a value of a type of kind String; the
section "should Get have a proxy argument" of the "SORF" wiki page
discusses approaches to this problem.  This example demonstrates the
flexibility of the Proxy-based approach, but does not distinguish
between DORF and SORF.

P.S. Perhaps we should find record proposals that don't sound like
noises my cat makes when coping with a hairball? ;)
