Since we have Craig at our disposal here, I figure I'll bring this up.
Before I subscribed to the mailing list, I posted this on the wiki:
http://wikis.sun.com/display/Jersey/getting+form+data+as+a+populated+javabean
(Note: that code compiled against 0.9. Will not compile with 1.0)
Does anyone thing this is something that should be in Jersey and/or JAX-RS? Not my implementation, which I worked on for less than an hour before wikifying it, but the general idea?
