One thing I do see that's missing (or maybe just not documented) is the power to specify the exact shape of the response.

One of the power of GraphQl is allowing us to specify how much or how little of the result objects we want. For example, a Blog post on a mobile app might just want only the short synopsis of the comments and the poster's name, while a web view might want the whole comment.
