My requests:- like/unlike
- comment
- post to messageboard
- deleting entities
- Reporting content
I know it's not explicitly listed, but fetching content is of course very necessary -- getting users, wire posts, messageboard posts, files, blogs, etc...
Bump to retrieving users, posts etc - including search results. With the proviso that it must be done with (and optionally, I guess, without) authentication.
As a matter of related interest, we are working on trying to create authenticated RSS feeds for this purpose, using HTTP authentication so that standard RSS readers and aggregators can get the content - is anyone else trying this?

Interesting GSoC project. I will be watching quite closely ;) The Web Services (REST) functionality provided by Elgg seems to have been rather under-utliized and not matured very much - unless there has been private and unreleased development going on. I played around some with the XMP-RPC interfaces in the earlier days of Elgg (circa v.1.2/5). I look forward to the results from this project. If you look into SOAP/WSDL interfaces to the REST facility - that will open Elgg up to even broader perspectives..
LOLZ so little public interest in such a powerful new feature which we will soon see - which will propel Elgg into a new social networking era..
C'mon y'all ? You all have been crying for this angle for about 2 years back ! and now.... silence ? Come here and give some show of support and the sense of our anticipations...
And have you read of his recent technical achievements at http://saketsaurabh.in/ ??
