[Seaside] Seaside as backend for desktop apps

[David Mitchell]

I do this for an internal app. I take a Seaside one-click experience
package, replace the image, and have my users download the ZIP and
extract to a directory. I include some instructions on the download
page and a shortcut icon to the localhost url.

We're on windows, but I have some users that run Mac at home and they
love that the distro works there as well. (They have to type in a
URL).
