Hi Sergey, everybody

I managed to do some work on Resty-GWT

https://github.com/resty-gwt/resty-gwt/issues/195
https://github.com/resty-gwt/resty-gwt/pull/196

With the patches (not yet applied) I can transmit and receive plain List<Entity> with no wrapper object.

Now I am hitting another roadblock and any input, especially from you Sergey is highly appreciated. I am trying to transmit a list of lists List<List<Entity>>. With my patches applied RestyGWT sends something like this in @FormParam

public void test(@FormParam("lists-of-entities") List<List<Entity>>);

the play load is
lists-of-entities:[...json representation of List<Entity> as json array ]
lists-of-entities:[...json representation of List<Entity> as json array ]

Now I am expecting my ParamConverter to be called with List<Entity> type but it is called with plain Entity and it fails because it tries to deserialize an array. Now why it is doing that? From my interpretation of the standard is that it should break the outer list to multiple parameters with the same name. How it can expect to do the same with the inner list? There is not enough information to assemble it back.

I tried to register also a MessageBodyReader but that also failed. Its functions are not called at all, while at the same time MessageBodyWriter is getting called and it works all right. Note that I have one class implementing ParamConverterProvider, MessageBodyWriter, MessageBodyReader. Any ideas why it is not working?
