This all sounds like it would be very useful, and be even easier than reusing our existing +fragment stuff using Y.io. If we're rethinking this stuff, it would be really nice to do further latency-hiding on the request side. For example, I have a plugin that 1. logs in 2. looks up branch lp:foo 3. looks up branch lp:bar 4. looks up person ~baz 5. creates a merge proposal for merging lp:foo into lp:bar, with ~baz as a reviewer. 6. opens the local browser to the merge proposal URL. This takes almost 30 seconds (on staging). My profiling indicates ~ 90% of it is doing branch and person lookups. Steps 1-4 have no data dependencies, so they could easily be done as a single request. In fact, we're only determining the API URLs during steps 2-4; we really ought to be able to do step 5 as our first step. > We could use the accept-extension to the Accept header to specify the list of > views to return results. > > Something like: > > Accept: application/x-page-fragments;views="subscribers=+subscriber-portlets, > count=+subscribers-count" The functionality is great. I'll let others comment on the particular implementation.
