HTTP Interfaces are great but it's impossible to replace pure RestClient calls in all cases.
For instance, code like

restClient.put() .uri(...) .body(body -> { //use body as OutputStream }) .retrieve() .toBodilessEntity();

or

restClient.get() .uri(...) .exchange((req, resp) -> { var inputStream = resp.getBody()); //use inputStream  });

cannot be replaced with HTTP Interface (as I know).

It causes minor inconvenience as HTTP Interface is used in 99% cases but RestClient is still injected to cover cases like download/upload large files without significant memory consumption and all other cases where Stream processing is needed.

Propose to add:

• OutputStream (or StreamingHttpOutputMessage.Body) as supported method parameter here https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/reference/integration/rest-clients.html#rest-http-interface-method-parameters
• InputStream or (ResponseEntity?) as supported return value here https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/reference/integration/rest-clients.html#rest-http-interface-return-values
