Two drawbacks to this:
- Due to JavaScript security limitations, I have to go through a Perl
script on the toolserver for each query (ugh!)
However, it might be an in-place alternative to Duesentrieb's script if installed on commons. Note that the perl script would also have to be on commons.
query.php (still available!) provides proxy functionalities, which however, seem missing from newer api.php
I'm not sure if using this is better or worse than Duesentrieb's but anyway, these are good news.
