After listening to the roundup session, I figured it may be worth having a look at sling [1] and crx [2] for a reference on how to use REST. In short, Sling and it's commercial cousin CRX is a rest framework with script execution on top of a java content repository. The key here is, that this all comes from Day (now acquired by Adobe) where Roy Fielding works. This may very well be a good example on how to implement an app on top of REST. If you look at CRX, they also ship with CRXDE|lite, a full EXTJS style eclipse clone to write code. It's free for developers, worth checkin it out, I think. Start up firebug and see how their UI connects to the REST services in the back.
[1.1] also shows their default REST servlet implementation and the operations/error codes they use. There was some discussion about this in the roundup.
