[SalesForce] Accessing Email over the REST API

The SOAP API seems to expose the EmailMessage sobject which would allow for downloading details of emails sent through Salesforce.

I do not seem to be able to access this based on the sobject data returned by the
REST API.

Any idea if this is likely to be included in the REST API?

What are my options?

Would SOAP be the only way to access it?

EmailMessage is in fact not accessible over the SOAP API either.

Emails via Salesforce are stored in the Task object so you can select from that where Subject begins with "Email: ". Other Email information is stored within the Description.
