But few of the available clients are very accessible to a non-programming audience. It is basically a "natural" filter mechanism. > What it's generally sacrificing is interactivity. That seems like it's shooting more for the early internet. There is a very rudimentary form mechanism, resembling a bit HTTP 0.9, where you could only do get requests with query parameters, which might allow to simulate a bit of interactivity, but I with the protocol being set in stone that would forever remain a hacky simulation (if you only have a hammer...)
