I would imagine adding optional args for new endpoints would be simple to do, and open the package up to MANY more use cases.
This may not be an issue with the folks at LiveCode, Ltd, but one possible reason why the library for Amazon Web Services (AWS) may only work with AWS is that is all it has been tested with. One concern some companies (again, perhaps not LC) have is that if they open an API up to untested endpoints, there may be an explicit expectation that the library will work with those end points. Even though such end points claim to be compatible, they might not be, and then that leads to an expanding potential work load for the company to support a broader range of end points.
Again, not saying this is the case here, nor am I saying that concerns about broader support should mean the company limits the library. Just offering another perspective I have run into in my career.
