imho the best way of doing this would be allowing the action parameter
of the s:form tag to be evaluated (according to the S2 docs it currnetly
isn't). That way people could use either <s:form action="/pet/%{id}"
....>...</s:form> or construct something like /pet/%{id}/delete using a
URL object which is then handled by the existing rest code.
This would eliminate the need for any more tags, which i think would
make things easier for others to get to grips with.

Is there any interest in creating restful form tags?
I've created variations of the s:form tag (create, destroy, index,
update) that simply and/or enforce the restful conventions.
Basically, the action attribute of s:form is removed and replaced with
a resourceURI attribute that understands the convention and context.
eg. a create tag knows that if the current uri ends with
"/pet/editNew" then the target URI is "/pet" (and the resourceURI
attribute doesn't need to be specified).
I've found them a useful simplification. Eventually the s:action tag
also needs to be substituted with one that knows which method to
invoke based on the current context.
I don't think these belong in the rest plugin as we eventually want to
achieve independence of the tag implementation though.
Any interest? If not I may just push them onto googlecode.
cheers,
