We've discussed this a bit, actually; there's a pretty sensible design
in the .dumb branch, that as far as I know works pretty well. (It
uses a helper app to drive the actual transfers, etc.)
This doesn't help Joel much, because we don't happen to _publish_ a
dumb mirror of nvm*. We could start, potentially.
It could use some more integration with mtn proper, and who knows,
potentially replace netsync at some point. It's not there yet,
though, that's more of a possible long-term goal.
