Norrie Quinn commented on CMIS-662:
-----------------------------------

I don't understand what the previous proposal from Florent addresses.

This callback technique (also called "JSON in Script" or JSONP) is a common pattern for cross site access to JSON data from a browser.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSONP#JSONP
http://developer.yahoo.com/javascript/json.html
http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/docs/json.html

The security concerns are well documented, and the usage of this technique is limited to GET.

> Recognizing that the Browser Binding proposal is not a proposal for a JavsScript API (as decided in our first meeting of the Browser Binding subcommittee), still it would be convenient if browser clients could handle the returned JSON data directly using a JavaScript function.   For example, if I had a JavaScript function that understood how to parse and render the JSON representation of the contents of a CMIS folder answered by getChildren, then I could specify this function directly in the GET request for getChildren.
