When we get a ""backup service"" or ""repair service"" implemented, in which uploads/repairs/whatever are being driven by python code inside the Tahoe node (perhaps coming from some yet-to-be-invented plugin system), we will want client functionality despite no external frontend interfaces being active. And many ""server-only"" nodes will eventually want to do client-like things, for server-driven repair or rebalancing. ",enhancement,new,major,eventually,code-frontend-web,1.7.1,,security websec,,
