This is pretty interesting, because it puts Automattic into the same  
support conundrum as the rest of the remote clients.

So whether it turns out to be "no big deal" or not, Automattic will  
share in the experience. I like it!

Needless to say, it's quite possible that iPhone access to blogs may  
increase the number of XMLRPC users considerably.

Don't you think the iPhone client would get more adoption if users  
could easily "start using it" without a configuration change?
