Between 4 and 5:
4.5. Enable fine grained authorization of specific URLs using XACML
policies.
4.6. Throttle particular URLs by inserting a throttling policy like we do
with SOAP services.

So basically first get all the things "external" to the actual JAX-RS file
done first and then look at a UI that lets you edit the JAX-RS artifact in
various ways (5, 6, 7 and I'm sure more later).

Excellent list Samisa!
