Description

I am trying to extract path parameters from a URI (mapping REST resource name=>domain ID), and the UriComponentsBuilder produced by ControllerLinkBuilder.getBuilder() has most of the information I'm needing. Would it be practical to make getBuilder() public?

Research direction

Start with ControllerLinkBuilder.getBuilder() and the UriComponentsBuilder it produces. Review the surrounding public API to determine whether exposing the builder meets the request, and verify that callers can access it and extract the needed path parameters.
