Query param with no value as "true" in Jersey

[Alessandro Adamou <ad...@cs.unibo.it>]

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to shortcut a QueryParam in Jersey and 
make it interpretable as a "true" boolean value e.g. if I want the 
metadata of an ontology:

http://[stanbol-host]/.../myontology?meta

which should be like

http://[stanbol-host]/.../myontology?meta=true

given that the DefaultValue for meta is false, but perhaps a little 
nicer and not as drastic as adding a PathParam

It seems to be a legal query in RFC 3986 [1], but can it be done in 
Jersey? Does it make sense?

Thanks

Alessandro
