  1. api: target servers for allocation requests 

    Allocation requests should target servers, which then can forward the
connection to the appropriate servers.

Contacting clients directly is fragile and prune to failures: e.g.
clients maybe firewalled and not accessible from the API client, or have
some internal certificates not trusted by the API client.

FWIW, in contexts where we anticipate lots of traffic (e.g. logs, or
exec), the api package attempts contacting server directly but then
fallsback to using the client.  This approach seems excessive in these
simple GET/PUT requests.
