Hey Radovan,

But then your use case is a different one: You have a registry/repository product that
offers reporting capabilities, and I can see why for the amount of data one can reasonably
expect there, the REST-based interface that will return XML representations is good
enough (in fact, a REST/Atom combination is probably the coolest thing one can imagine
there).

But my use case is refactoring an existing application landscape into a SOA, where
currently HUGE amounts of data are being ETLd and cleansed and transformed and
analyzed between applications and the enterprise DWH; there's a very knowledgeable team
handling this. Telling them to throw away their tooling and replace it by an XQuery- or
XPath-supported, HTTP-based mechanism is not an option.
