Also, there is another possibility: We are exposing a ECMA script execution engine via the Traverse enpoints. Instead of trying to shoehorn the traversal API into REST calls and then anyway executing script snippets, Why not exposing a JavaScript plugin along exactly the same lines as the Groovy plugin, and provide examples on how to use the same usecases via that plugin, so we cover the traversal API that way?
