What about for using it as a headless browser with javascript and Rust manipulation of the DOM?

We have a http proxy that would like to analyze html responses and rewrite parts of the page.

Is servo ready for that or should we use something like PhantomJS?

Thanks!

Side note if this is something you're interested in doing, you might want to check out the FastBoot project from the Ember camp. It's built on top of non-Ember-specific libraries that let you do server-side DOM manipulation without needing something like PhantomJS, just node.

I'm not involved with the project...just an admirer. I do know that it has a headless option in the command line invocation.
