Actually, that's the way I implemented this. But I didn't find any
hooks for extending the parser, so I manually inserted new items
into endpoints._endpointServerFactories and endpoints._serverParsers
and added the StringParser to endpoints. 

Is there a better way? Could you provide me with a link to any 
documentation? I've already read the tutorial about creating plugins.

Fine. Any suggestions for the name of the new endpoint?

Best regards,
