Exactly the spec doesn't include a lot of things essential for running a
server, or that are included for compatibility purposes. Shindig's goal has
always to be both a reference implementation and a useful implementation.
Excluding a component just because it's experimental is hardly necessary.
There are plenty of experimental features in the JDK, httpd, jetty, tomcat,
or really any other project in existence.
