Sounds good to me, but why api-accounts instead of api.dev.lcip.org or 
api.accounts.dev.lcip.org?  That's what the name hierarchy is for, 
correct?  Or accounts.dev.lcip.org/api if there's some reason to not 
push down into the 5th level of hell.

This is about as colourful as the bikeshed gets, so feel free to roll-on...
