RESTful HTTP Protocol not returning expected results

[fattenap]

The following gremlin calls do not seem to return the expected results, when made over http using a POST

g.V().id() => just returns the vertices and not only the ids select() => does not return expected results especially when you pass in values like .as('y').select(["y"],"{it.name}") OR select("{it.id}{it.name}")

Is this issue still alive? Does it mean the http protocol should not be used yet? I'm aware of the alpha nature of this library.
