support webhooks as a notification method
Webhooks (http://webhooks.pbworks.com/) as a notification method would allow for almost endless customization on the end-user side. For example, we'd like alerts to be delivered to Campfire - if you supported webhooks, PagerDuty wouldn't have to write any code to support Campfire, we'd just setup a little webapp that did that for us, and point PagerDuty at it.
GitHub's open source services repository is a great example of how webhooks can allow extensibility of an application by it's end users with little-to-no work by you! http://github.com/github/github-services/tree/master
We have added the webhooks notification method to the PagerDuty roadmap. Thanks for the suggestion!

Webhooks notification is indeed being worked on! No ETA yet, but we'll keep you updated.

Can you at least tell us if it's being worked on or ignored?

It would also be really, really handy if there were webhooks for roster changes as well, so we can have our big dashboard page update automatically
