The Streaming API is great. It would be better if it included more
events. I'd love to see favorites and social graph changes (new
friends/followers in the Streaming API. It would drastically reduce the
number of polling requests apps need to make to Twitter.

No. Haven't met Mark McBride, yet, but I'm sure I'm not him. And I'm
real---at least I think so. But you've got me worried, now. :)

+1 to more event types but in its own stream if not in addition to the
firehose. Applications interested only in these events should not have
to drink from the firehose to get those events.
