	Sure, I think it's something we can consider. It could be cool and
useful.

	Usually I like to have some consumer who wants something, before we
implement it. For example, we have *lots* of people who have wanted the
XML-RPC interface for a long time, so that gives us a good idea of how
to implement it, because they'll say "Oh, it really needs to do THIS."

	It would be interesting to know who our REST clients would be, and we
could give them what they'd be most interested in.
