If so, do you plan on connecting the DB directly to the open Internet,

i would presume not. The USP of RethinkDB (at least from my very quick
skim over the website :-) was the 'push' notification of updates to the
clients - which would be lost if you used a 'traditional' REST API from
the end-clients to a server.
Interesting. My take on that is that since it requires an open
connection to the database in order for the notifications to happen,
it's more like a pubsub sort of approach. Which is still a nice touch,
but it seems like it requires either a direct connection to the db or a
callback mechanism. And that is also from a very quick skim of that
section of the docs.
