I've been avoiding to write documentation because the rpc infrastructure was still alpha, though that will probably change after #1130 is merged(I will write at least one comprehensive wiki entry)

This is just how I work: Instead of writing design docs, I start with an idea and the design is shaped while implementing the initial prototypes. Only after it's solid the docs will be created.
