Comment(by zooko):

 Yes, you're right.  I'm so tired I don't know my frontend from my backend.

 An S3-compatible ''backend'' is interesting because of this: Redundant
 Array of Inexpensive Clouds: http://allmydata.org/~zooko/RAIC.png . :-)

 An S3-compatible ''frontend'' is interesting because lots of people have
 tools and knowledge about how to store things with the S3 API, and they
 could more easil retarget those things to a Tahoe-LAFS grid.
