3rd party clients which want to embed data from

The plan is to eventually implement "remote" clients that fetch data via the
API, and get notifications pushed to them probably via PubsubHubbub. I would
very much like to see this, but our priority is to get Wikimedia sites feature
complete first.
Being able to talk to the database directly does simplify things
greatly I imagine, and I can completely understand wanting to focus on
Wikimedia sites first. Thanks for the details.
