Splitting up Contract API

I propose the splitting of the Contracts API. This could be split up many different ways, however it doesn't need to be complicated. Simple split it so it is either 'Public Contracts' or 'All contracts'. The idea behind splitting it this way would be the 'All Contracts' is the current 'Contracts' API and it wouldn't effect existing applications. But would allow for the non-trusting types of individuals to provide only public contracts via an api.

A second way, perhaps even a better way, would be to provide an 'All Public Contracts' api, which could be broken down into 'Exchange Contracts', 'Auction Contracts' and 'Courier Contracts', with an optional parameter for a character ID to get specific individuals public contracts.
