/*
 * The app module can be used to control a web application from javascript.
 * Currently this isn't used by the helma command line server (server.jar),
 * but it can be used to start the application server from the shell using
 * the following command:
 *
 *   importModule('app');
 *   app.start();
 *
 * It takes care of the following things:
 *
 *  - Initializing native host objects
 *  - Setting interceptors or rules to automatically switch optimization
 *      mode on certain requests
 *  - Starting and configuring the web server
 *
