I'm doing it the other way around: "I need a User, get it from the
HttpServletRequest."

User class has:
String name, int age, List<Pet> pets

Pet class has:
String name

Request parameters would look like:
user.name=Joe Bloggs
user.age=22
user.pets.name=Harry
user.pets.name=Spot

This is what all web frameworks do (allowing for the terrible job Spring MVC
does), but I'm looking for a standalone library that does this kind of
mapping.
