Description

As per JAX-RS 2.1 specification:

11.2.7 Java API for JSON Binding

In a product that supports the Java API for JSON Binding (JSON-B) [19], implementations MUST support 
entity providers for all Java types supported by JSON-B in combination with the following media 
types: application/json, text/json as well as any other media types matching */json or */*+json. 
Note that if JSON-B and JSON-P are both supported in the same environment, entity providers for 
JSON-B take precedence over those for JSON-P for all types except JsonValue and its sub-types.

We already provide JSON-P support via JsrJsonpProvider, adding JsrJsonbProvider would complement the specification.
