I thought that we decided on having a root node for single objects.  We can open it up for discussion. I also think a node is good if we want to add any metadata in the future, such a

{
    'status': 200,
    'link': localhost/api/hosts/394,
    'host': {
        "name": "fdev2.sat.lab.tlv.redhat.com",
        "id": 394,
