Jigsaw components?

Has W3C any plans to define and extract some reusable components
from Jigsaw code? Of course all Java packages can be seen as components,
but because several packages are tightly interconnected it is not
easy to use them in different context.

I am trying to develop a specific proxy server. I could take Jigsaw
proxy mode and extend it, but it seems to be quite complicated. There
is quite a lot functionality that I am not going to use. I could
probably use some classes from org.w3c.www.protocol.http, but how much
code really comes with those packages?

This is also partly a documentation problem. I hope that there will
be some 'system architecture' documentation when Jigsaw 2.0 final
version will be released.

Is there any other method to do server administration than Jigadmin?
I understand that some people only want to use graphical tools, but
there could be some 'configuration API' layer to be able to also build
other (command-line or graphical) tools.
