This call can support both real time and non real time messaging. It
allows you to specify who to send a message to (so bob could send
something to susan directly) and it also gives you the ability to send
a specific type of message. Depending on what a container supports you
can send emails, wall like stuff, notifications, or perhaps even an im
like communication.
The message object has both a body and title right now:
http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial/docs/0.7/reference/opensocial.Message.Field.html
Which both allow html, but will be sanitized by the container on output.
I hope that helps.

So.. John, it is on the restful spec's plate to incorporate this now :)
