Christophe Vigouroux commented on JBSEAM-975:
---------------------------------------------

We just have the same need. We do not want to exclude certain fields, but we want to include juste those fields we need.

> I think it could be nice to define the fields of the objects returned in a "WebRemote call" with an "include" parameter (instead of the current exclude parameter).
> For instance : 
> now you have : 
> @WebRemote(exclude = {"secret"})
> it would be nice to be able to define :
> @WebRemote(include = {"fieldIreallyNeed1", "fieldIreallyNeed2"})
> The reasons for this are many :
> - security : if the object structure varies over time, you would not want the new fields to be available on the client side by default
> - in some cases it's a lot more lightweight (both in the code and in the volume of data sent) to define a minimum set of fields you want instead of the fields you don't want
