One of the main goals of asyncweb is to provide maximum flexibility when
dealing with http services - to satisfy a wide range of usage scenarios. 
Even though there is still much to do, in the future it will be possible to
hook in to all stages of the message reading / writing processes. This
allows things like proper (application level) handling of continuation
responses, async streaming of large message bodies etc.
So I think in the future the asyncweb API is likely to become more generic
and flexible to allow the best possible integration with any application
requiring high throughput http (e.g, web service frameworks etc).

Of course, if this is possible to achieve whilst factoring out and building
upon some lower level http codecs, then that would be awseome! 
I guess the details of such a refactoring will become more obvious over time
after we integrate.
