+I should add that .NET does a few nice things when viewing the trace 
+in a web page.  As well as HTML Encoding the output, it also 
+substitutes CR "/n" for "<BR>" plus a series of spaces to &nbsp;, 
+such that:
+"    " would be replaced with " &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"
+
+I think as a minimum MONO needs to HTML Encode the trace otherwise 
+you might be returning invalid HTML to a web browser when tracing is 
+enabled.  But it would also be nice to do the "\n"->"<BR>" and 
+the " "->"&nbsp;" conversions.
