Hi Bob,
I'm still trying to find enough time to give you a proper response about
workflow: in the meanwhile, I'd suggest to try to avoid to go so
low-level in you customization (playing with userDataBinder is quite
difficult and not documented at all).
When customizing or extending REST controller methods, always try to
resolve calling one of existing controller methods before or after your
actual code.
Regards.
