What I meant is that this is a particular kind of backend API, a very "model-centric" one. Nothing wrong with that, I just don't think this is the one and only kind and thus should take on the generic name.

Understood. Maybe an approach is to allow for this to specified optionally, with the fallback of being hard-coded if it's not present?

I think that the examples appear to be a 'model-centric' one, because we're trying to reach people that build very model-centric sites as of now, but resources can be anything, so I don't think that it's super specific. This is a good thing to think about though.

See above for some other good stuff about the IDs that wycats knew that I wasn't as current on.
