> Currently, the MessageServlet that ships with ActiveMQ (used by the REST API) ignores the body of HTTP POST requests if the content type is NOT "text/xml".  This results in empty messages being sent to target destinations.
> For my particular needs, it would be nice if "text/plain" were allowed because I'm hoping to use the REST API for posting text messages from a VXML voice/web application.  However, the VXML platform I'm using only supports "text/plain" content type (not XML or JSON) and the VXML standard itself does not specify which content type(s) should be supported in this case.
> Anyway, I'm not sure if supporting the "text/plain" content type conflicts with REST principles, but I believe at a minimum "application/json" should be allowed along with "text/xml" in the POST request (not just the response).
