Wow, Artanis looks quite sophisticated and I'm wondering now if I should 
use it for my work instead of (web ...) directly.  I need to take a 
closer look.

One immediate thing that I noticed: some of its API is different from 
(web ...) but not obviously better or at a different conceptual level.  
For example, your route context seems conceptually equivalent to (web 
request).  Is this just because you first wrote Artanis before (web ...) 
was available?
