Not wacko. Although it may not be desirable, at least in the way you
envision. Say there's a bug in one of your HTTP mod_perl modules, do you
want to lose SMTP?
Some people think WebDAV, an even-more-extended HTTP, will obsolete all
other protocols (http://www.webdav.org/other/faq.html#Q26). I merely repeat
this URL for your consideration, I think it's not realistic.
