Description

The current API requires that you send one request per fetched resource, but it would be nice to allow fetching collections of resources. E.g.,

GET /«uuid1»,«uuid2»,«uuidn»
Fetch the resources specified by the comma-separated UUIDs.
GET /metadata/«uuid1»,«uuid2»,«uuidn»
Fetch an array of the metadata for the specified comma-separated UUIDs.
