REST API feature - Add user as a new buddy to a specific user's buddy list

[josephcarmello]

Description of the Feature

It would be nice to have the ability to add a buddy, via web request, to another users/your own buddy list.

Use Case

Selfishly, I have a use case for this type of feature set, but overall I think it could also be useful for reimplementing a RAS's user base in case of data loss or automating some fun things for a stream.

Potential Challenges

Sadly, I'm not intune with the ins and outs of the RAS development cycle or problems, but it seems as though this would be entirely additive instead of things that would need to modify or replace existing functionality.

Additional Information

If there's anything else I can provide for testing, I'd be glad to :)

I think this feature could be generally useful. For example, you could seed a new user’s buddy list with all the existing users at signup time. That could facilitate connecting usersfor a new platform with a small number of users.

Even for future things like unit testing while checking certain clients. Could also be used for debugging user changes or bug squashing, etc.
