Is this code checked in to any repository?
I think it is better to provide this functionality in Infogami rather than just for Open Library.

Are there security issues with exposing raw data outside of any
template? Or did we move all the sensitive data to special things with
different permissions?

We don't have permissions at thing level. We have permissions only at
page level in the wiki.
I don't think there will be any security issues, but it will be better
to move the user passwords to a separate table. They don't need to be
versioned.

But what about stuff like email addresses?

What is this security issue about? If stuff is exposed to templates, then users can get at it, therefore such stuff must never be exposed or else there's an exploit, right? I'd hope that RDF/XML could itself be written as a template.

Presumably the idea is that the RDF module would be generic enough to
be used on any object, not have to be rewritten for every type.
