This would certainly all be possible, although I don't know of any hosting
providers actively supporting Squeak.

If anyone is interested, however, I could likely arrange something.  Email
me privately and we can work something out.  Cees de Groot could probably
help you as well.

Squeak isn't a very good fit with CGI - better would be GNU Smalltalk or
Ruby, which have much lower startup time and process overhead.  Squeak
makes more sense for long running application servers (closer to the Java
Servlet model than to CGI).
