// FIXME: Quite a few of these APIs can take multiple entries for the same parameter, to behave

// ANSWER: JSON Schema defines this aspect of SMD, enumeration of possible values is handled
// with an "options" attribute. For example:
// { name: "search_in", type: "string", optional: true, "default": "all", options:["all", "question", "best_answer"]}, // can be "all", "question", "best_answer"

// FIXME: Some of these API endpoints' names only make sense when you know they're in the
// Yahoo Answers part of the API; just reading a flat listing of methods in this SMD
// likely won't have enough information about what they do. Should we split this up?
