The design decision to use Websockets in LMS so that whole system could
be done in Perl and packaged as a plugin (the JS would be in a webpage
hosted by LMS) .  This could be installed easily and would work on any
LMS installation not matter which OS. A proxy means various builds have
to be maintained (e.g. Windows, MacOS, Linux/Arm Linux/x86 etc)

I know but the very fact that somebody litigated means you may need to
be careful both for yourself and the LMS community. Large companies
don't mind spending money on a losing case making life miserable for an
individual for a few years - if it deters others.
