No, it just needs to be self contained.

In general, removing dependence on external servers simplifies the
overall system substantially.  It makes Ur/Web apps easier to spin up,
move around, and modify; everything you need to worry about is in one
place.

It would be easy to build some separate wrapper web server or deployment tool to accomplish this (and distribute that code with Ur/Web), but the goal is already so easy to attain with Lighttpd or Apache that it's not high on my priority list. We're generally talking ~3 lines of configuration to connect to an Ur/Web app via FastCGI.

Eventually, it would be great if Ur/Web could even bake in a (very
simple!) DBMS, like sqlite.  Then you could access the full expressive
power of Ur/Web without any hassle about setting up other services.
Of course, you could still set up postgres or friends if required for
performance.

Ur/Web already supports SQLite. The first few sections of the manual explain how to use it.

Is there a way to get the fully qualified name of a style as a string?

There might be some hacky way to do it now, but I haven't intended to expose such a feature. Style names are very predictable from module structure.
