    Description

      The Post subclasses have fields that are actually available from facebook for generic Post types.
      For example, any post type may have a Page representing a Place:
      CheckinPost does have getPlace(), but other Post types are allowed to have a location.
      PhotoPost has a mapping for object_id to getPhotoId(), but other post types may have an object_id that corresponds to a photo object.

      eg:
      http://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/?method=GET&path=100003283444808_195829197203194
      is "type": "status",
      but has "place":

      {...}

      I believe it would be useful to collapse all the Post subclasses into Post itself.


      probably worth a shiny new bug: looks like the Post with_tags element is not picked up by any Post field.

      "with_tags": {
      "data": [

      { "name": "SeenuInq Upadhya", "id": "100002151518236" }

      ...
      ]
      Likewise, the "tags" element is not documented in the Facebook apis on Post. I suspect you are using the Photo tag logic, rather than a new Mixin thing for the element tag.
