=item * C<text/html> => C<YAML::HTML>
This uses L<YAML::Syck> and L<URI::Find> to generate YAML with all URLs turned
-to hyperlinks. Only useable for Serialization.
+to hyperlinks. Only usable for Serialization.
=item * C<application/json> => C<JSON>
L<JSON::XS> installed. The C<text/x-json> content type is supported but is
deprecated and you will receive warnings in your log.
+You can also add a hash in your controller config to pass options to the json object.
+For instance, to relax permissions when deserializing input, add:
+ __PACKAGE__->config(
+ json_options => { relaxed => 1 }
+ )
+
+=item * C<text/javascript> => C<JSONP>
+
+If a callback=? parameter is passed, this returns javascript in the form of: $callback($serializedJSON);
+
+Note - this is disabled by default as it can be a security risk if you are unaware.
+
+The usual MIME types for this serialization format are: 'text/javascript', 'application/x-javascript',
+'application/javascript'.
+
=item * C<text/x-data-dumper> => C<Data::Serializer>
Uses the L<Data::Serializer> module to generate L<Data::Dumper> output.

I have code in production using L<Catalyst::Controller::REST>. That said,
it is still under development, and it's possible that things may change
-between releases. I promise to not break things unneccesarily. :)
