I approve of this idea. Counterparty has the same problem. Their API returns a unsigned transaction that is formed differently from how other unsigned transactions, which causes friction. Someone needs to write up a specification that is standardized so that all unsigned transactions are of the same form. Basically the signature section of the should contains all the information required to make the signature, and it needs to be encoded in a way that the signing application (a blockchain library like BitcoinJ or BitcoinJS) can tell that it is unsigned.
