API question (friends groups)

Hello!

I hope this is the right place to ask - is it possible to get custom friends groups (posting filters) through DW XML-RPC protocol? I'm using LJ.XMLRPC.login, everything works except for friendgroups which returns an empty list. (It's my own client I'm writing, but I've also checked with LogJam, which is using flat interface, and it doesn't get friends groups either).

Thank you!

[edit: answered! thanks for the fast answer :) ]

This question gets asked periodically! The most recent previous discussion is here: http://dw-dev.dreamwidth.org/27026.html

Short version: yes, we know it's broken, and we would love for someone to fix it, but we don't want to do it the same way LJ does, because of the watch/trust split.
