Very cool, but maybe the operation names should be the same as for
the native client? i.e. read-attribute instead of attribute and read-resource-description

Or is it implicit that GET appends read- and PUT appends write-?
Yes that was the thought was that GET only exposes read so it's
redundant, although if the mapping confuses people i could switch back
to the true operation names. It's very important though that GET not be
allowed to call anything but those few sets of read operations.
How does something like add subsystem look?
All mutation operations will pretty much have to go through POST, which
would just be a pure RPC operation call like in the native API. We could
technically do a PUT if we ensured there was a common uniform ADD
operation for all resources. I'm not sure how useful it will be though.
We can't use it from the console since some browsers have bugs that
prevent anything besides GET/POST working via XHR.
