Recently I've been playing around with 
ServiceStack<http://www.servicestack.net/>, 
an open-source framework for developing RESTful APIs in C#.

They have a rather neat way of viewing their APIs JSON output in a 
human-readable format.

Click for fully functional sample 
output<http://servicestack.net/ServiceStack.Northwind/customers/ALFKI>
.

This interface has been completely open-sourced and decoupled as an AJAX + 
HTML5 page: 
https://github.com/ServiceStack/ServiceStack/wiki/HTML5ReportFormat

I think this would make a good addition when JSON via REST is enabled, 
perhaps set at a default route point */apiviewer/*.

What would you think about adding this to web2py?

All the best,

Alec Taylor
