I assume this would be read once at deployment time and so the list of
WebSocket endpoints will be defined at that time ? What kind of
information is available in doIReallyWantThisOneAfterAll(next) to make a
decision ?
What would be some typical criteria ?

For an interface-driven endpoint, at least two classes are required ?
- Endpoint class
- ServerEndpointConfiguration
And possibly a third ?
- ServerApplicationConfiguration

If I want to hook up a set of encoder/decoder(s) to all the WebSocket
endpoints (annotated and interface-driven), is that not possible today ?
