But this would introduce a kind of coupling REST deliberately chose 
to *avoid* therby enabeling the service to evolve and especially to 
change the exact representations it sends. Surely this demands for 
client implementations that can handle this scenario but that is 
after all the cost of the better evolvability.

Or am I missing your point?
