So is the server-side invocation syntax documented anywhere?  I can
just use a dummy wrapper to see it in action, but it'd be nice to have
a general overview rather than just investigating via trial and error.
If there aren't really any docs, then when I get around to it I can
just go check the source.

Thanks again.
