Description Fernando Ribeiro 2013-01-31 02:16:02 UTC 
Description of problem:

The Alert API currently supports the text/plain format, but except when the return value is of a primitive type, returns the result of the toString() method, which is usually not proper for client consumption.

Since most clients may be interested only in the application/xml and application/json formats, dropping support for the text/plain format should be evaluated against improving it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

4.5.1

Good find - I think I actually never intended to support text/plain and that this is a typo and meant text/html.

I will look into it.
