Please think about adding libuv earlier. As Brad wrote before, libuv
could replace some #ifdef code that we currently have (process
handling, file operations). I am currently refactoring the code around
the cmOutputConverter and I would like to introduce a cmPath class (I
will write more about that later, but I can already say that libuv
might come handy for some functionality).

Is this needed? If the CMakeCache.txt file continues to be written,
clients could just parse that file. If clients want to make changes
(ie. cache editors), they can rewrite the file. Is that a problem? I
assume it is, because CMake needs to reconfigure when it rereads it.
In that case, the server should provide a way to report the contents,
but also ways to modify it.

Cheers, Daniel
