I'm talking about the communication layer between the front-end views and the internal back-end which seems to already resemble AURA. My impression of UPnP is that it is sufficiently heavy-weight that you wouldn't want that to be the communication protocol between the iframe views and the back-end. UPnP seems like something we absolutely would want to support, but that it would be mediated by the back-end for a variety of reasons.
