Mike: Are four letter words preferable to, say, REST? I think REST is nicer (maybe with 4LW URLs and responses rather than JSON) from an accessibility point of view. I don't see a reason we couldn't do it, but it would be *great* to back away from the "everything by the (kitchen?) sink" mindset in terms of features.
(I demand double lucky number one points for my sink pun. Yes, you're welcome. ;)) Thanks!
