I considered HTTP/1.1 but left it out for a few reasons, mostly that
in this case it would lead to hackishness. ;)

For example, the socket may timeout if there aren't enough requests
within a given timeframe.  Another is that, if the servlet and server
aren't managed/owned by the same people, it's a little rude to maintain
a 24/7 socket to someone else's machine for a "stateless" protocol...


And so on, and so forth...
