We're aiming to build all of our new runtimes so that they don't require dev_appserver.py, by making them support the same APIs and idiomatic local development practices that one would use on any platform. If you don't mind me asking, what are the features of dev_appserver.py that are still useful with the newer runtimes, which do not have App Engine-specific APIs and client libraries that dev_appserver was originally intended to mock and emulate?
