Right. It's certainly possible, and it's awesome that many services like your own provide good clients that empower developers this way. My experience though is that some don't, and figuring out whether they do support these more advanced features, and how to use them if they are included, often makes the discovery process longer than just implementing a simple HTTP wrapper. That of course assumes a reasonable well designed API with pretty good docs though.
