Also very interested in this, and ran across the same code.
Since there is no HTTPS, I'm interested in HMAC SHA1 to sign HTTP requests to our REST API. Similar to how Amazon does it here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/RESTAuthentication.html
I've done this in the past and it works real well if you cannot implement HTTPS; and given that your data is not sensitive. Just a little measure to keep any private API less public.
Would love if this was opened up to a class or function we can use.
