why do you need the OperationType? it can be determined from which property was
set (publish|subscribe|unpublish|unsubscribe).

what's to stop some MyRandomApp from setting the same API key and listening to
messages?

[rkc, 2014/08/05 22:25:23]

This isn't a security feature, it is a scoping feature. In an unauthenticated
API, there is literally no way we can prevent one app from getting messages from
any other app. For example, if we scoped by app ID, one could simply install a
local app, set the key: manifest field and masquerade its app id.

The API key is used as a simple scoping mechanism since it allows multiple apps
across platforms to be associated with one single 'key' value.

[not at google - send to devlin, 2014/08/05 22:38:14]

I see. out of curiosity why isn't this a message filter?

[rkc, 2014/08/05 23:06:29]

We don't want an app to keep setting arbitrary keys based on which app it wants
messages from. Putting this in the message filter indicates that we should be
using this key to filter on, while we really want an app to use the API key only
if it wants to associate the current app with other apps on other platforms.

It is a way to say "this app is the same as all the other apps that are using an
API key from the same project". It is not meant to be "give me messages from app
x, y and z". For the latter, we want to eventually provide a clear way to do so
(if enough people actually ask for it; as of now, no one has).

IMO this should just be "execute" because the fact it batches is rather obvious,
and there's no other option other than batch. But IIRC you called it
"batchExecute" for consistency with other platforms?

[rkc, 2014/08/05 22:25:23]

Yes, but execute is fine too.
