Bingo. Yuck. I don't want to read the code for (let alone write) a bunch of do-nothing model objects. I want something that turns my result set into JSON ("there is no step 2"), assuming I am running an authenticated query.
Of course, I also want something that runs my Javascript validation code server side, as well, but that's another story.
I do, at least potentially. JAX-RS frameworks that are currently on the market add too much overhead.
