Ideally, the JavaDocs for TypeConverters would be a bit more specific about what things can be converted via TypeConverters. For example, there is an indication that you cannot use TypeConverters to convert the return value of a @Query-annotated DAO method: https://stackoverflow.com/q/49566388/115145  That's a fairly reasonable restriction, if it is true, but it is not obvious from the docs that this would not work.

One possibility would be to convert the bulleted list in to a table, with rows for the @TypeConverters location (e.g., "put it on a Database"), columns for what specific things get affected (entity fields, DAO method parameters, etc.), and X's or other indicators in the cells to show what is and is not covered.

Thanks for considering this!
