Dan Allen commented on SEAMSERVLET-3:
-------------------------------------

...and perhaps because it appears in these blog entries:

I think we should consider using the annotations supported by JAX-RS. Clearly, we would be applying them in a different context, but it would allow the developer to use the same API (read: annotations) when information about the request needs to be injected. I'm expecting that the developer understands the different between a REST invocation and a delegate call from another bean. They are mutually exclusive.

@javax.ws.rs.CookieParam
@javax.ws.rs.HeaderParam
@javax.ws.rs.QueryParam
@javax.ws.rs.FormParam
@javax.ws.rs.MatrixParam (values in the URL delimited by a semi-colon, such as http://host.com/projects/catalog;name=Seam;lead=Pete Muir)
@javax.ws.rs.PathParam (not sure if this one really applies)

We should also consider supporting @DefaultValue like JAX-RS.
