Yeah, they are not tied to ajax at all, so they shouldn't have "ajax" in the name if that is what you mean, but are you against having a JSON result type that will take care of the serialization for you?

No, I'm not against having a JSON result type, but the serialisation code itself should not be buried in there, because people might want to use that for something else ( e.g. embedding some JSON output within generated HTML). -- Martin Cooper regards
