Also, if you want to Accept application/json, perhaps you could do something like:
[recordLength, recordData], [record2Length, record2Data] That gives you the same semantics, and the record data can be anything, but also falls inline with the server returning Content-Type: application/json For the custom content type, you could then return the custom format. Possible best of both worlds?
