and php shindig for all /social requests

Is anyone deeply attached to /social and /gadgets?
At the moment it's possible to implement your own social apis in a
separate language, and use a simple rewrite on these two directories to
pass requests to the appropriate backend, while still making use of the
gadgetserver.

Am I correct that this change would tie you into extending the shindig
classes if you wanted to implement both sides of the server? (or writing
a request parser to split requests apart before proxying them to the
appropriate backends)

Out of interest, what benefits do we get from running off a flat
directory structure? (except from batching two requests into a single
call)
