Hi,

many thanks for the details.

I agree about the placeholdersFromUrl being useful outside the context of 
rest.Resource. Also, it seems more flexible to pass in the pre-configured 
request to the configuration callback.

For easier reference, I filed a bug report:
http://bugzilla.qooxdoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6043

Regards
Tristan
