I agree with Michael.  It can see that it should make a difference.
Accessing via WebService or via Web Interface (HTTP as is done now),
the user prefs/permissions are still accessed either way.

This should not make any difference. 

Since it's coded as a SOAP webservice, it should be a piece of cake
to connect with WST and create a GUI layer.

Don't know how this will affect the load on the server. Pieces of Mantis 
like user prefs/permissions aren't coded in the most efficient way.
