Yes! I forgot to add WebACLs to the list above.

WebACLs basically decouples data from access controls. Basically,
Facebook, LinkedIn etc.. don't expose such separation.

Naturally, which amounts to Webby Tickets or Web Tickets i.e., as owner
of the data you can issue Tickets that provide temporal controls over
data access. This is also where a lot of Blockchain related effort is
happening, but we need to make said happenings webby too!

Methinks: Web Web Want :)

Yes, which where websockets come into play while still remaining true to
the loosely-coupled nature of a decentralized web.
