* FastCGI
* standalone dev server
* futureproofing

I don't understand saying "the entire Cat stack".  It's not like I'm pulling in
a session module and an ORM and a form builder and a twitter client -- it's
just a HTTP abstraction and a URI dispatcher[1].  If we were talking about

worth it to me anyway.
