Is it possible to have a set of endpoints/routes with one content-types (and content negotiation) and some other routes with another content-types?
I’d like to work on xmls in some application modules and jsons in some other module, and regular form-data -> html in the last module.

The ContentNegotiation plugin select a suitable converter based on the Accept header value. It sorts mime types by quality and the number of * and then takes the first matched converter. So if you want to unconditionally respond with a specific content type you have to serialize your objects explicitly without the plugin.

Actually, you can install the ContentNegotiation plugins into specific routes to respond with different body types.
