It's your party, but 


Code:
--------------------
    
  GET  /restapi//Players/{playerid}/status   Gets the power status of a player
  POST /restapi//Players/{playerid}/status   Sets the the power status of a player
  
--------------------


can be just as easily done as


Code:
--------------------
    
  GET  /restapi//Players/{playerid}/status       Gets the power status of a player
  GET /restapi//Players/{playerid}/status=on  Powers on a player
  GET /restapi//Players/{playerid}/status=off  Powers off a player
  
--------------------


That's what the Domoticz guys did. I know, I know, it's not RESTful, but
it's certainly useful and even noobs get it.
