Request for new API feature and Problem with favorite / add to watchlist

Hi together,
i'm actually writing a "android app" for themoviedb.org and i'm good on the go. Hopfully i'm able to release a first beta in some weeks.
But there is one think missing which would be nice to add to the app. On the website we are able to see "Popular People" which is missing in the API. So are there any plans for this? Would be very nice
Second thing is the following: When i'm sending a post request for adding a movie to my favorites or to the watchlist it works (even when i send "false" instead of "true") First time sending this request for a movie i get back a "statuscode 1 success" When sending the second time (doesn't matter if i send "true" or "false") i get "statuscode 12" The item/record was updated successfully" And i'm not able to remove the movie again.

It actually is there, I apparently missed it in the documentation:
It looks like you're sending a string instead of a boolean. Try this instead:
The movies you have already tried this with might continue to fail, I might have to manually remove those for you. Try some new IDs.
