> The current code to sort MessageBodyReaders and MessageBodyWriters appears to have some issues:
>  - It sorts in descending order, so the most generic types are at the top of the list and {{Foo implements MessageBodyReader<Object>}} wins over {{Bar implements MessageBodyReader<Color>}}
>  - It grabs any generics it finds, even if they don't relate to the interface.  If your provider implements several generic interfaces such as  {{Foo implements MessageBodyReader<Object>, MessageBodyWriter<URI>}}  you would not be guaranteed to have your sort in the {{messageReader}} or {{messageWriter}} list reflect your actual generic type for that specific interface.
