I think a general proposal for "Pluggable front-ends" would be better received. I know there has been talk about dropping ZServer in favor of Apache 2.0. What would be nice would be to have options. ZServer's simplicity in terms of admin and setup is a big advantage, especially for getting Zope adopted and for testing. If Twisted is equally easy, it might sub in as a more powerful alternative (There is no doubt going to be disadvantages for some purposes I think), and Apache 2.0 for the ultimate in flexibility and scalability at the expense of initial setup, upkeep and learning curve.
