Maybe make use of custom media types on controller? https://github.com/aerogear/aerogear-controller-demo/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jboss/aerogear/controller/demo/config/CustomMediaTypeResponder.java to render JSON as "plain text"?

Or gently open a feature request to include it on controller :)

About it be convenient…well..it's a matter of taste. cURL never lies :)

Using the browser to directly access (GET) endpoints is usally (at
least for me) a very convenient way to quickly check things.
With the controller, when the RESTFul endpoint is configured to
consume "JSON", a URL like this (in the browser)

http://localhost:8080/scaffoldtester/customers

returns 404


However, with curl (curl -v -H "Accept: application/json" -H
"Content-type: application/json" -X GET
http://localhost:8080/scaffoldtester/customers/)
It works since we explicitly specifiy the application/json

I wonder.... if there could be a nicer way, to allow JSON, and the
TEXT/HTML - without adding more concumes() ?

Not sure - just a thought ...
