Hmm, it seems quite simple and robust to me -- all it needs is a flat
file and it's robust against many sorts of failures... running things
in the server's address space seems much more fragile.
Though, it occurs to me that we have process spawning machinery now
(and have for a while, for that matter). Is there any reason we
should just recommend to people that they use the hooks to spawn some
process, like every other VCS's hooks work?
