In most Facebook apps <http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/canvas/>,
the frontend (html,javascript,css) is completely separate from the backend
(data access, sessions, etc.).

I would love to see two distinct development paths emerge here for frontend
and backend using something like json-rpc <http://json-rpc.org/> as a glue
the two together.
