Eliminating the use of proxies with a JSON interface might appeal to
some developers.

Google's "mapsdt" service uses a very clever scheme to avoid proxies.
Each tile URL contains a reference to a KML / KMZ file plus the usual
(x,y,z) tile parameters.  Presumably, the first reference to the KML /
KMZ file causes tiles to be rendered and cached.  Subsequent
occurrances operate out of the cache.  If it could also apply
different colors "on the fly" it might improve an extremely useful
service.  Colors could be defined in a table or in the URL parameters.
