just to clarify, however - oauth calls on api.twitter.com get 350/hr,
whereas basic auth calls get 150/hr.  so, that's one increase already...

There sure is for TTYtter. But that's not a typical desktop app.

unclear - we're actively working with our infrastructure and operations
teams on capacity planning specifically so we can increase the rate limits.

personally, i would -love it-, if everybody just used the oauth web workflow
so that none of you even see a user's username/password.  that would make
the web more secure.  i'm even soliciting suggestions on what we could do to
make the web workflow better.  i understand, however, that the PIN workflow
can be off putting for some users.

so, implementing oAuth instead of xAuth would make me happy - but i doubt
that's a motivation for most developers.
