Will there be a "tclhttp" written in Tcl?

dbohdan 2014-09-30: It's not a goal for me for now (especially since there are already web frameworks for Tcl) but I would welcome a compatibility patch that would make the code work in both. Porting should be pretty straightforward except for the use of static variables (though those can be emulated with namespaces, e.g, static variable varName to $procName::$varName).
