Nigel, Atlas has sufficient abstraction over the repository and does not want to expose it to the users. Given that we have a type-specific DSL, we would like users to interact with the system using that or full-text search.
Rester read-only API was added for testing and I purposefully left out the server part since it allows mutations. Given that you want to poke around a graph db, I'd suggest you download titan server with rexster and just point it to the atlas db dir. Makes sense?
