Description

Apparently the Java API for WebSockets provides converters for entities, named Encoders and Decoders. We should discuss whether it makes sense to support these in JAX-RS 2.1, as it is really strange for people to see that two APIs in Java do the rather same thing using different interfaces: Encoding and Decoding entities.
