Thanks. I was actually able to get it working this way by reconfiguring
server classes accordingly.

This scenario is a bit confusing.  The websocket extensions don't require
me to drop the jars in web-inf/lib.  I activated the module and it was
ready to go.  I now understand that was only because
"org.eclipse.jetty.websocket."  isn't hidden by default.  Wouldn't that
make sense for org.eclipse.jetty.client as well ?

I get that I shouldn't be activating the "client" module to get
jetty-client.jar on the classpath  since its really intended for a
different purpose. Still curious if there is any real harm done?
