thanks.

today, a jetty handler is highly tied to the Servlet API:

void handle(String target, Request baseRequest, HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)

not sure what else depends on Servlet API from jetty-server, but I wonder
how hard should be to change this to:

void handle(String target, Request baseRequest, Response response)

I'm probably wrong but, isn't baseRequest and request the exactly same
instance? and why use HttpServletResponse and not jetty version?

Anyway, isn't a big deal but will be great if the Jetty API can evolve
truly independently of Servlet API.
