Actually, I do have one comment after playing around with this a little
more: what's the possibility of using a 'Link' header instead of
a payload envelope? Seems to be pretty easy to do [1], it's a proposed
RFC standard [2], and it's consistent with the GitHub API (which I
happen to admire) [3]. Certainly won't block on it though. Thoughts?
