A few comments:
* While RESTfulish URLs look nice, MW is supposed to work without rewrites AND
pathinfo, so I guess we'll have to stick with api.php?foo=bar
* Formats: my main concern is format=xml WHICH SHOULD BE KILLED WITH FIRE,
unquestionably. An API simply can't be 2.0 enough with XML. However, JSON could
be a pain to read when debugging API calls, so format=txt would be nice to
have.
* Prop is a useful thing when you're requesting a shitload of information,
especially when you're not on broadband. Also, some props require additional
computations, so better exclude them if not needed. For example, I can't
imagine action=parse without fine-grained props.
