Well, I'm thinking about a limited http server as part of Xastir, not
necessarily on port 80 (the default http port). It would be similar to the
current Xastir server port. I think we could find code for a simple http
engine to incorporate into the Xastir code that is neither excessive nor
insecure.

My suggested approach would let people develop a GUI in multiple environments
and provide a standard "API" to facilitate this development.
