Response field filtering
As per this example: http://www.vinaysahni.com/best-practices-for-a-pragmatic-restful-api#limiting-fields
It would be useful to be able to restrict the returned fields provided by the response.
Using a dot notation we could filter any nested properties as well. e.g.
GET /customers/fields=id,name,address,address.postcode,address.line1

Please also include the use-cases as to why features are useful with future suggestions.
Although this particular feature goes against the contract of the service and thus ServiceStack, it also invalidates caching, etc - therefore unlikely to be considered. The preferred approach is to have an explicit minimal service returning summarized results.
