For those who are actually looking for a solution to this... Use Pound.
http://unix.freshmeat.net/projects/pound/

Pound is a reverse HTTP proxy, load balancer, and SSL wrapper. It proxies
client HTTPS requests to HTTP backend servers, distributes the requests
among several servers while keeping sessions, supports HTTP/1.1 requests
even if the backend server(s) are HTTP/1.0, and sanitizes requests

You know it's funny but what you describe is very similar to the
"super technology" I was describing earlier. I mean concept is similar
but I'm sure implementation is very different.

But that's not relevant -- your roll-your-own protocol is only
applicable to your own application.

I was _specifically_ (to be on topic) pointing out that WEB servers
are difficult to failover due to session issues.
