Thinking out loud. How much additional work would it be to keep the "old" rest in a legacy module separated from the pure one? Does it even make sense?
I'm fine with the removal and focus on bolt on a general basis. Does Bolt run atop HTTP as I remember it ? Or is that specific ? If the later some might want to keep using rest. Emmanuel PS: it's a bit sad that we implement something (rest remote) and it's ready and by lack of release it is replaced and remove it without seeing the light of day.
