Comment (by itamarst):

 Looking at the code again, seems like we actually want to:

 1. Rename `NativeStorageServer` to `FoolscapNativeStorageServer`.
 2. Create a new `HTTPNativeStorageServer` which also implements `IServer`.
 It would implement the concept of being "connected" by sending HTTP
 requests once a minute or something.
 3. When an announcement arrives, it is checked for NURLs, and that
 determines which of the two `IServer` implementations are used. This is
 done in `StorageFarmBroker._make_storage_server`.
