--- Comment #7 from Daniel Kinzler <[email protected]> ---
The updates uses the XML dump format. That's not really compatible with the way
the API structures XML output, and in case JSON is requested from the API,
would would have to be encoded as a single string value. That's really
annoying.

Also, API modules generally shouldn't mess with HTTP headers, which is
necessary for PuSH, as far as I understand.

A Special page seems to fit the bill much better on the technical level, though
it's a bit awkward conceptually. There are several special pages that generate
non-HTML output though. 

Hm, perhaps the best way to implement this would be a custom action?...
