-    An implementing class can either provide its own custom 'register' method,
-    or use the automatic pattern handling provided by the base class.
-
-    To use this latter, the implementing class instead provides a `PATTERN`
-    class attribute containing a pre-compiled regular expression. The automatic
-    register method will then use this method to register any of the following
-    instance methods associated with the corresponding HTTP method:
-
-      on_GET
-      on_PUT
-      on_POST
-      on_DELETE
-      on_OPTIONS
-
-    Automatically handles turning CodeMessageExceptions thrown by these methods
-    into the appropriate HTTP response.
