Actually, it could with the client/server/plug-in API I'm trying to
describe, provided Quasimodo publishes it's plug-ins, accepts your
connection request. But latency would of course increase with the
number of client/server interface layers involved... And simple?

That can be done quite transparently through the API (client and
plug-ins are very similar), but as I said, latency...
