I definitely agree with your suggestion as well. Further, existing xPL 
libraries and utility applications can ease the development time.

I probably have created the last xAP app/gateway as managing UIDs (which 
essentially duplicate the address namespace) is a major hassle.  xPL is 
much easier in many respects.  The more modern xPL schemas like lighting 
and security especially help.
