Not sure why you were downvoted. I don't think the idea so "out there". Apps embed their own sql servers, too, why not a web server.

I think it would be nice to have a launcher that launches both the client and the server then.

If you were referring to Firefox / sqlite3.. I wouldnt consider sqlite3 a server at all. Nonetheless, I agree with what you are saying

Strictly speaking it's not a server, true.
