             Summary: Support "structured syntax suffix"/"fragid"s in media 
type providers
                 Key: WINK-380
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WINK-380
             Project: Wink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Common
    Affects Versions: 1.3
            Reporter: J.W. Janssen


Mimetypes can contain a "structured syntax suffix" (SSS, specified in RFC6838 
section 4.2.8). For example "application/vnd.custom+json", should be regarded 
as "application/json".

Currently, providers are returned that are strictly compatible with a requested 
mimetype, meaning that for "application/vnd.custom+json" only a provider with 
that particular mimetype is to be returned. While that works, it should also be 
possible to let a provider registered for "application/json" to be returned. 
This would make it easier for "vendor specific mimetypes" based on JSON to use 
the generic JSON provider.

I've worked out a patch for Wink already, but want to give it some additional 
testing. When this is done, I'll attach it to this issue...
