Generic reading using REST services for Web Content Manager

Generic reading using REST services for Web Content Manager
Although not all item types are handled by the REST service, all item types can be read in a generic fashion using the REST service.
We can issue a GET request to any web content item using the following URI:
/item/{item-uuid}
Example
GET /wps/mycontenthandler/wcmrest/item/c98d11e1-7f2a-480e-9aac-40eb1949cbda HTTP/1.0


HTTP/1.0 200 OK
