Besides the "personal" covered by the HTTP http server UI submitted, there is
also a usecase for those having a small home server. In this scenario, it's not
really easy to use the http server as of today.
My own thoughts on this are that with two reasonable changes this should work
quite fine.
The first is to allow the http server to run without Seahorse. Seahorse is
really not useful in this scenario, and adds a lot of dependencies including an
accessible X display (even if it's not used). For the headless case maybe just
validating the user's login password would be enough. Or something similar,
without GUI interaction.
The other fix is to allow the server to run from inetd. This would give
advantages w r t server load and http server stability (since it's just
restarted for each sync). This means that it should be able to use stdin/stdout
instead of socket communications when given a command line option.
