Hi, I've started adding specs for (optional) "rack.io" and Mongrel
support as well.  It's pretty lightweight in that it just requires
an IO.select-able IO object or StringIO (for testing)..

Perhaps it can go into 1.1 with some review/comments.

It's useful for at least two purposes.

* It can be used to implement Web Sockets or other alternative
  sub-protocols with the HTTP connection.

* It can be used to detect client disconnects to avoid needlessly
  performing expensive operations:

I'm also thinking of a way to integrate it with EM-based servers like
Thin so it can be used with existing Thin deployments.


The code is in the "rack.io" branch of my git repo:
  * git://git.bogomips.org/rack
  * http://git.bogomips.org/cgit/rack.git/log/?h=rack.io

Shortlog:

      Rack::Lint understands "rack.io" env
      add "rack.io" to Mongrel request
