I don't really care for this. The promise of web technologies, which has finally become reality over he past few hears, is obviating the need for client libraries. This benefits. Oth providers and consumers alike. The benefits cited by the OP are not that compelling. Most (all?) other APIs allow/encourage direct access so for a large number of developers, that's a strong preference.
