Handle XML as well as JSON in ReST API
The ReST API should be capable of parsing input and returning output in XML format as well as JSON format.
The ContentEncoding and Accepts headers should be used for determining the correct input and output formats, respectively. This part should be fairly straightforward.
There may be changes required to the JSON output format in order to be able to easily produce XML from the same data. I'm not sure if there is an easy way to direct various parts of the output to be attributes vs. elements in XML.
