What would the user experience be when we introduce "even smarter"
http server protocol extension?  Will we add remote.foo.starterhttp?

Perhaps

    remote.$name.httpvariants = [smart] [dumb]

to allow users to say "smart only", "dumb only", or "smart and/or
dumb" might be more code but less burden on the users.

The code obviously looks correct, and the documentation reads fine.
