That object is tightly tied to the connection.
It ain't gonna survive either.

I guess...
If it's working for you, and you are aware that the object you create when
you un-serialize has lost some of its inherent properties, I think, then I
guess it's okay.
Does it actually work? I mean, can you iterate through the rows it returned?
I guess my first question should have been:
Why?
What do you gain by serializing and unserializing a result object?
NOTE:
It's possible the mysqli API is *so* different from mysql API that the
properties I'm thinking of aren't there any more.
Or maybe it's only in PostgreSQL that some connection-specific properties
are tied to a result resource?
