Yeah I've also tought about this for a while before I was finally fed up 
with a REST-server project and finally started vibe. Of course it's much 
more work now in total but making web applications is finally fun now :)

That would basically be vibe.core and vibe.stream. Those have no 
dependencies to other modules so they can already be used without the 
rest of the code adding overhead of any kind.
