Comment (by imath):

 Thanks for your feedbacks @espellcaste, Backbone seems the fastest move I
 agree.


 > I don't get the need for a method for each action. The idea of keeping
 everything like it is was exactly not to overcomplex and reuse code. What
 benefit do you see in adding such methods?

 Well maybe I haven't found how to handle private groups membership
 requests using the BP REST API. Maybe you can point me into the right
 direction.

 About the timeline, we can always extend it, can't we ?

 I'm asking because I've just added a [https://github.com/buddypress/BP-
 REST/pull/140 PR] to fix an issue for the Groups endpoint and I've just
 found the Members endpoint seems to be using the way WordPress is getting
 users, meaning it's not possible to list users when don't have the
 capability to do it (unlogged users or regular members). Is there a reason
 I'm not aware of explaining why `BP_User_Query` is not used to list
 members ?

 Maybe working on some real use cases would help us to polish the API ?
