The REST API has two request handlers with regards to the attention system:
One fetches the set of atoms having STI values within a certain range and
the other one returns all atoms in the attentional focus. Both of these
functionalities are not affected by the recent changes I made.

BTW, I had been wondering if a gradual replacement of the current REST API
with a guile one could be beneficial, since guile atomspace API is less
buggy and well maintained than the python one. There is a nice guile rest
api library here  http://web-artanis.com/; It is under the GNU project.
