Configurable per request sounds reasonable. If one could select which
properties to return, that would be great, however, the options "all", or

Yep and that also brings in the discoverability features... (I get the
fealing I'm going to get bashed though).
As it is now I'd say at least 50% of the data is just links provided back
for the sake of discoverability. Will people actually use those template
URIs? I think not many will... and if t
Hi Mattias,
There are use cases where the REST API shouldn't be chatty - using HTTP caching
you effectively build up a local representation of a graph over time. At the
