Why? Want to use gRPC for everything, as it make propagating context, load balacing and connection persisting easier than using raw HTTP.
By embedding HTTP in gRPC, we have a migration path, and a way for authfe to no have to know how to forward requests for every service type.
See weaveworks/common#10 for the PR to add this to common, which should go in first.
