Yes, this is the plan.  I was hoping to at least be able to build those
links so that they trigger the appropriate action on the other (social)
site side (pointing to and including meta information for the link post).

But yes, you're right.  In a nutshell the links will be static objects,
using static assets that we host.  Nothing will happen on other sites
without the explicit action of a user on our side (which I prefer
personally).
