That's similar to what I did  with "taskRunner"

 - a (could be headless) server which would accept commands, including
       -  load stack
       - dispatch command to stack
    and would return the results of those commands
- a client library to find and send commands to any such servers available.

I got it working (enough for my needs), but haven't yet made it into an easy-to-use tool for everyone. Use it almost every day - both for long running, boring tasks on my space PC and to use the multi-cores in my macbook for cpu intensive tasks.

Write up and code can be found at    http://www.tweedly.org/taskRunner.lc

I've been toying with the idea of some kind of "headless" standalone
to run on  a server, that would watch a directory for instructions,
and then perform the generation of my outupt forms.    I haven't gone
far into it, though.
