Respectfully, Tony, Stationserver is intended to be whatever we decide it should be.  Each of us have personal preferences, but I'm not sure any of us should try to dictate.  This is a collaboration... at least I hope it is... and the requirements document is labeled "draft for discussion."

Of course you can write your own code any way you like.

Anyway, the multi-user requirement sprang from what I thought was your suggestion that different client connections should have different capabilities.  But we can certainly drop it if that's the consensus of the folks who speak up.
