No offense taken. The basic goal was to make it possible to stream from
ffmpeg(1) over HTTP, to many users (thousands).[1] I believe the existing
HTTP server is unsuitable for that, and making it so would basically involve
reimplementing Cubemap.

[1] Or, if you want to see it the other way round -- to add FFmpeg input
    support to Cubemap (loosely coupled). Basically the same thing.
