This is a fantastic product. I would absolutely love to have the standalone 
exe creator without the webkit add-on. It would make it worlds easier for 
node apps to be distributed (especially in commercial settings even though 
I understand the risks of not requiring an up-to-date, separate node VM). 
Is it feasible that the embedding logic (which I assume also adds hooks for 
the fs module) be separate from node-webkit? Is there a method for me to 
use this now in a headless form (i.e. no index.html) for just my standalone 
apps (I understand the executable will be bloated w/ Chromium embedded)? Or 
is there another framework that allows packaging of single, redistributable 
exe's using node? (I haven't found any).
