Tim Fennell commented on STS-456:
---------------------------------

Ben: I presume you're talking about implementing what we talked about where you 
first scan for an exact match, and if that doesn't work, scan for a subclass 
match?  (Or concurrently, but not short-circuiting for a subclass match).

One thing to take into account, is what happens if I have a deep hierarchy (3+ 
classes) and formatters for the top two classes in the hierarchy?  We should 
probably pick the one closest to the class handed in.

> TypeConverterFactory and FormatterFactory should handle subclasses of their 
> target type

> Given class A and class B, which extends A, and Formatter<A>, 
> DefaultFormatterFactory should be able to locate Formatter<A> to format 
> objects of type B. Likewise for DefaultTypeConverterFactory.
