Should I change the HTTP protocol then to use the same format,

Given that the ref exchange happens on multiple lines (one ref per line)
in the native protocol, and that your proposal is using one line for
multiple refs, I don't see this as a big factor wrt code reuse. Since
you'll have separate "output" code anyway, why not simply going with
refs in straight binary for the HTTP protocol? Even the debugability of
refs exchange in plain text is dubious especially with all refs on the
same line (that'll be a pain to split refs out of a long stream of hex
by hand).
Well, I think the real question was to go to multiple lines,
native-protocol style, or go to binary.
