Support for multiple versions of single implementation or even multiple implementations of JAX-RS in a single container
(JavaEE, OSGi etc. - see
http://java.net/jira/browse/JAX_RS_SPEC-110 ) is one issue for which I want to avoid using
RuntimeDelegate.
Anyway, I have just pushed a new Client API update to the public repository. It contains improved and unified config
story as well as ClientFactory class + Client interface. Please check it out.

Please add a new issue if not already there. I think we can try to retrofit the class with a new interface and make the
interface the base point for 2.0 (just thinking aloud right now).
