I do think there are hurdles such as handling Seam injection, and seam component life cycle on a restful requests. Obviously some type of filter would be needed, but how much of that fits in seam vs RESTeasy requires more baking. I think your points around accessing an entity object graph as a single resource is very important. When I was looking at RESTeasy one of my concerns was service class explosion.
