It is a good idea, I would like to start small, because if we start
small, we can always evaluate the design or adapt other technologies as
we go rather than have an all-encompassing, all-doing class and set of
interfaces.

My request is to first get an API defined for how the Web Server class
would be defined/launched from the .NET universe, post that to the list,
and do a few iterations over it before we implement.
