I guess extending the collection of resources class to cope with the
templates inclusion
would not be that bad, but that would result in new elements in the existing
json/xml representation.
Probably most clients won't care about the extra element, but what if
someone bound the
xml with jaxb or other schema oriented tool and we extend the xml under
their feet?
There is a desire to have templates being exposed on 2.1.x too.
Have we already dealt with something similar already in the past, that is,
adding new
information in the resource(s) representations?
I guess it happened implicitly whenever we added new fields in CatalogInfo
objects,
but that was done so that the new elements would appear only on trunk, while
on the stable series the extras appeared in the metadata map.
But... in this case there is no metadata map I can peruse.
Suggestions?

Right, more in line with the normal hierarchy on the resource side
