Right now there's _zero_ code for any of this in the server. It's
completely unnecessary -- the protocol and the server code are flexible
enough to do support all sorts of interesting applications with but
miniscule modifications on the client side.
Why create unnecessary complexity? A slight patch to the client --
that's already been written -- is all I'm arguing for.
