Allow JAX-RS Resources, without XmlRootElement JAXB annotation
--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CXF-1650
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-1650
             Project: CXF
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: REST
    Affects Versions: 2.1
         Environment: MacOS X 10.5.2, JSE 1.5
            Reporter: Artur Karazniewicz


Currently, exposing POJO resources as application/xml MIME resource, needs POJO 
to be annotated with XmlRootElement. This is serious limitations especially, 
with conjunction with JAX-WS, and wsdl-first approach (when one wants expose 
service through REST and SOAP). Things even goes worse with DOC/LIT/Wrapped. 
XJC is little bit restrictive when it comes to emitting XmlRootElement - see:

It would be really helpful if there were some (plugable and customizable) 
strategy, how overcome above requirement. It would definitely be helpful, 
especially with mixed scenarios - JAX-WS + JAX-RS.
