New webapp -- one that runs independent of the cluster. Currently, cluster main page moves with the master so could be be hard to find after master failover. New webapp should be done w/ modern tools now we have newer jetty. Output pages as xhtml so can be queried easliy.

Master rewrite moving more state to zk and more robust regionserver/master communication bus.

Faster RPC; one that doesn't require our stipulating an handler count.
