I'd have a great interest in seeing something like this come through. A 
pure Ruby approach would make it much easier to distribute a bundled 
solution without dependencies on external services, such as Apache or 
MySQL.

CherryPy (http://www.cherrypy.org/) is persuing such a strategy in 
Python land. It would be very cool to have something similiar in Ruby.
