kentonv: was poking through backend.capnp out of curiosity, and thought it was odd that the api doesn't really use capabilities, instead returning Text ids everywhere; was there a rational behind that?

*rationale
<zarvox>
The caller is JS, and IIRC the frontend-backend split happened before we had persistent sturdyrefs?
<zarvox>
(could be misremembering history)
<zarvox>
I could see a world where you'd have a function getGrainById or something that turns a text id into a Grain handle or something
<zarvox>
I think we didn't prioritize it because we didn't expect to support an API for talking to the backend directly, so we considered this an implementation detail, and there wasn't clear value in rewriting

fair enough.

isd: the short version is that this interface sits beneath the layer that implements SturdyRefs, so can't use SturdyRefs.
