Description

I think we could benefit from having a more Spring WebMVC native way of exposing REST routes. Right now we're using camel-servlet, a more Springy way of doing that would be to register a HandlerAdapter/HandlerMapping(s) with DispatcherServlet. One immediate benefit would be that the mappings would dictate what paths/URLs are handled by Spring and what are handled by Camel, allowing for some overlap between them. Also Spring this would allow Spring HandlerInterceptors to be used.
