We should write some now that GWT 2.0 is not a moving target any more.  When
working with Jetty and Dev Mode under 2.0 trunk, I have always just used the
ServerServlet to attach Restlet to a path.  I do not believe it is really
possible any more to attach Restlet to the root of the container (/), at
least not without surgery to GWT's DefaultServlet, which in turn is a
modified version of Jetty's that understands how to handle GWT modules ...
and I hope we don't have to attack that.

All I do in practice, in my GWT 2.0 client applications, is make sure the
root of any RESTful resources is configurable, and set it differently in Dev
Mode than in production.  Then I usually attach Restlet (usually a
redirector to my "real" Restlet server side running somewhere else) to /r
under GWT using ServerServlet, same as any other JEE container.

If that practice sounds sane to everybody else, I'll write it up.
