REST is just using HTTP properly (as a transfer protocol) - if you want to implement RPC go use some other protocol that is actually a transport, instead of raping HTTP simply because it will get you through firewalls.

REST is a far superior approach to developing web apps because it actually respects the style of the underlying protocol. It's not that mystical or complicated.

Oh and stop using front controller patterns, they're stupid.
