Hmm.. just so I fully understand.. how does this batching up requests to external sites thing work? One request to my server results in n-requests to n-separate other servers? If so, how does the response data get composed and returned to my browser? Is there a requirement that all the external requests must return like-structured/formatted data? Does it only work for GETs? How are individual error conditions handled? How is authentication handled? None of this is specified within the Core API specification that defines the basic batching mechanism so I'm pretty much just left to guessing how it it's supposed to maybe possibly work.

I agree that the REST model I proposed is a little awkward if we translate it directly to the JavaScript API, maybe it should work differently there.  But I think it's a good direction to take the REST APIs to make them more robust.

That is a good point about external sites.  Batch requests are a convenient way to line up a bunch of HTTP requests that need to be proxied.

Sure.... So while we might be able to modify the rest api to support this, how would this get exposed via JavaScript? Did we just hose up the programming model by forcing a bunch of parameters on the people service? Not sure....

Also remember you can batch up calls to external sites, not just those to the container.

I guess what I'm lacking is the real context behind the question. What is the reason to get rid of batch? Is it b/c we want just REST? What am I missing?
