Batch requests about facebook-sdk

[martey]

The library does not currently have any explicit methods for batch API requests (the get_objects method only returns multiple objects, not "connections" like an album's photos), but it is possible to construct them.

Using the PHP code on the Facebook blog post announcing batching, I was able to construct this Python example:

>>> from facebook import GraphAPI
>>> graph = GraphAPI("access-token-goes-here")
>>> batched_requests = '[{"method":"GET","relative_url":"me"},{"method":"GET","relative_url":"me/friends?limit=50"}]'
>>> graph.request("", post_args = {"batch":batched_requests})
[redacted information about Martey and 50 of his friends]

I could see that a method to make this easier, or a way to put GraphAPI objects into "batch mode" (where all calls are stored, and sent as a batch request when needed) would be useful, so I will keep this open.
