Yes seasidehosting.st is running a modified VM to provide a more sandbox like environment. But one problem of port limitation is that it is not possible to send mails from the seasidehosting app (for instance for a registration step). That's OK since the hosting is free and it could be abused to send spam - but if you want to form a new Smalltalk based business and create a seaside app using SmallHarbour this may be something you will not miss in your shiny new online application. Maybe there could be two versions of SmallHarbour - an edition with limited rights for all and one with more rights for people/developers the community knows longer and trusts. Developers have to "earn" the second status (by providing extensions, code fixes,...) - this would also help moving Pharo/Seaside forward. It may also help to distinguish between "I just played with this stuff" (like most inactive accounts on seasidehosting prove) and real active users who may provide the next success story.
