API: Make Views callable (render/evaluate/what ever you call it) via RESTAPI

4 votes

Currently views are only available via the "view.py" WebAPI Endpoint.
It may be more consistent to make them available via RESTAPI.
Default Output should be json but for the older last-century buisness applications, csv and xml should be able as output too.
2nd step make them manageable via RESTAPI :)

view.py can already output JSON with the URL parameter "output_format=json" added.

It's not the REST API but will get you all the data that is available in views.
