    Oddly enough, I was thinking the same thing yesterday. Well, not
quite the same thing because I was thinking of a fastCGI module built
into monotone (please, I'm not asking for this, I was just musing to
myself). I'm the author of a web interface for monotone written in
Lua, and got myself thinking that, as I already have monotone running
all the time to serve monotone clients, it could as well receive
fastCGI requests and process them. That's much cheaper than having to
call monotone every time a new HTTP request arrives, which is
expensive.
    That, combined with a automate interface to lua hooks, would make
my life extremely easy. :-)
