Hmmm. That's an interesting idea that I hadn't thought of before.

But the RTSP spec, while it has a lot of the same request and response 
messages as HTTP, has some other things in it that I don't think a 
servlet could support because it has to communicate through an HTTP 
interface (at least all the ones I've written before do).

I'm thinking I'll have to go a few layers deeper into Jigsaw than just 
the servlet api to do it.
