Sub-resources returned by sub-resource locators? Yes, I agree this needs
more exploration. I believe in 1.0 objects returned by sub-resource locators
are not modified by the implementation runtime (so field and property
binding isn't guaranteed) since they aren't managed objects. There's also
the issue of annotated constructor params in those objects since they are
created by the app and not the implementation.
I have dropped the "root" qualifier in the wiki. More details will need to
be fleshed out, but it seemed like an unnecessary restriction of the first
draft.
