 The flash proxy README currently documents how to run the websockify
 (https://github.com/kanaka/websockify/) program as a
 {{{ServerTransportPlugin}}}. This works, and it does base64-encoded text
 frames that allow sending binary data. However, the program is rather
 larger than we need it to be, and hasn't been audited for security as far
 as I know. It also has an unwanted built-in web server (that serves local
 files). The built-in server is disabled by default, but easily enabled.

 Solve these problems by writing our own, with an eye towards easy
 deployment and ability to work as a managed proxy.
