Description Mark Macdonald

The Orion Node web app can be used as middleware in a larger connect/express app (see bug 400029). However it pulls in some modules that are unnecessary and may not be desired for some use cases (for example, gzip compression).

It should be pared down to just what is strictly necessary to run Orion. Maybe separating the client and server parts would be nice too.

The issue of how to package and configure the client code is trickier, will deal with this in other bugs.
