A local socket is a good solution imo. Minimal work to implement. And
secure: the socket would be accessed through a ssh tunnel, or an https
php webpage for example. Authentified and crypted communications,
these tools provide a level of security that would be painful to reach
into Wesnoth.
Agreed with Guillaume. The best solution, IMO, would be to go for the
local socket, and then to add a PHP (or perl, or whatever)
web-application for remote management. This would keep things simpler.
