I think removing the feature would be a mistake. I've done a recent review
of the most popular browsers and they all say the prefer xml to text/html.
I have been working on a sample application that used the same jax-rs
resources to server both a webapp and a web service. The webapp is served
via HTML and the web service via XML. However without relying on the
extensions there would be no way to reliably serve html to the browsers
(since they all state they prefer xml over html)
