I’m not sure what you mean by “good enough”.  Good enough for what?  What are 
we debating here?  I was suggesting a mechanism to ease Simon’s specific 
problem, and I do think a script which both starts the server, and loads the 
correct URL would be helpful.  I often forget exactly what path to copy when 
writing http tests.
