--------------------------------------------------------------
[~schaefa], I quickly reviewed the PRs and I'm not really convinced we need an
injector + a new API for this use-case. IMO link externalization cannot be
solved with a one-bullet solution. It's a personal opinion, but I really like
what Provision has done at [1] and I think that externalization is a
site-specific task (contrary to instance-specific). Continuing this reasoning,
I'd suggest to handle externalization directly in the application code. (cc
[~sseifert])
For JSON you could build your own JSON serializer and mark the path properties
as being serialized with it.

> Add an Annotation to Sling Model to mark a property to be Externalized
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-8655
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8655
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Sling Models
> Affects Versions: Sling Models API 1.3.8
> Reporter: Andreas Schaefer
> Assignee: Andreas Schaefer
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: Sling Models API 1.3.10
>
> Time Spent: 1h 20m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> For Peregrine CMS we use Sling Models to obtain data in JSon format to be
> rendered on the client side. This means that the returned content is not
> externalized aka paths are not mapped to the external view.
> Sling Model should have an Annotation (@ExternalizedPath) that marks a
> property to be externalized when loaded.
> In order to be flexible the Externalized Path Injector should be pluggable so
> that customers can add their custom Externalized Path Providers if they
> choose to do so. By default there is a provider that uses the Resource
> Resolver's map() function.
