will it be able to send pages from the filesystem or just preloaded pages?
How will you configure it?

I can suggest using a netgraph module for the work as it can be connected
to a netgraph ksocket node to receive the requests (jdp made all the
changes needed to allow this to be done).
It also gives you a way of implementing as many servers as you need on a
single machine.

no idea on the name though
