Actually, it makes sense when trying to convince an network admin to open
ports for VNC use - it saves them opening *two* ports instead of one.
I might investigate using various hackery to allow 'ordinary' HTTP proxies
to be used to carry RFB traffic, when I have got other things (like HTTP
support in the first place!) out of the way. This might involve using
multiple GET and POST events to enable two-way traffic with the
lowest-common-denominator, and would certainly involve modifying a viewer
(whether Java or native) to test it with. Things like the Expires: header
would be kinda useful too...
