It would be absolutely incredible if you could have seamless webclient switching. Something like a redirect to another page via a proc in DM. It could pass a hash of the computer_id and hub_password and give it something like a 60 second expiry token.
If used it would skip the ad and login, and for the most part (Aside from browser refreshing, I guess) look like a seamless world-switch.
This (with a little bit of savefile handling) would be incredible for multi-server worlds.

To clarify, the reason why it passes the computer_id and hub_password was so the receiving server could confirm that this was a client that should be transferred seamlessly, and skip the ad and, and it would be great if it set a const var on the client so the receiving server could handle a non-new client. Skipping login and things like that, though in theory that could be done with savefile manipulation.

The loading of resources should be done in the backgrund before the switch. There should be a way to check the percentage on that too so we can have our own loading screens.
