I see the current patch puts this new data structure into `meta=siteinfo`.  I 
am wondering why there, instead of `meta=wikibase`.  Is `meta=wikibase` being 
deprecated?

IMO ideally this mapping should also be exposed on `Special:ListDatatypes` 
(e.g. mention that a 'URL' is stored using value type 'string') and then build 
an api query module to provide access all the information on `ListDatatypes`, 
including the help strings.  That would mean this new api dataset is aligned 
with an existing special page dataset, and the two should naturally grow 
together consistently.
