This is certainly the REST ideal, but it's not so simple as it sounds. Even
in a rich-client environment you can still expect back end servers to:

Handle json serialisation/parsing
Manage routing to restful endpoints
Perform caching and gzip compression
Co-ordinate chunked http streams
Convert coffeescript to Javascript
Convert less/sass to CSS
Minify/aggregate resources
Marshall data across domain boundaries
Authorisation/authentication/oauth/ssh termination
Etc.

Agreed. My ideal requirement is that the web framework, starting from Cédric's principles, has got a core that only serves data, as Moandji said. All the other things should be provided by add ons (libraries, plug-ins, etc...) that I only add when I need.
