I think it should be easy to wire JSR-303 impl with a MessageBodyReader (or writer), if you want automatic support? Implementation can extend an existing reader to get data binding piece, then call validator.
I have usually just done explicit call from method after data binding; it's a simple one-liner. So while more integrated supported could be nice, I don't think this is very hard to do without framework-level support.
