Github user merrimanr commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/711 I don't think it matters that much but I'm leaning towards keeping the REST layer simple. The Alerts UI will be responsible for adding other annotations so it's not a stretch to add these too. Are there any advantages to pushing this responsibility to REST? I don't have a strong opinion either way.
