IMHO this would further simplify patching a lot. While I'm well versed with patching, having grown up on assembler, I really appreciate your work in making the process more convenient for the masses (me included). The internal web server would be for giving a local UI to configure the patches to apply, correct?
I like the dedicated download page that links the most recent firmware by device model, and loathe the wiki page which is just terrible in that visitors first need to find out the mark from the device type, then have to hunt for the correct mark and most recent fw version.
On a sidenote: would you think it sensible if kobopatch could also automatically install the final tgz to a mounted device? At least on Linux there's the ability to discover active mount points, from there on a check for direct .kobo subdirs could quickly discover mounted Kobo devices.
