In #1044678: alien platform support and #1044692: wordpress backend we talk about deploying full non-Drupal CMS applications. How about we start with just static HTML? Just write the vhosts and such.

With #1132488: Provide SFTP access to sites, #1132512: [meta] Manage databases as separate entities and #1132526: Configure MySQL front-end in place, we would be able to offer rudimentary generic web-hosting. We could then probably install Wordpress, Joomla, Spip (even Drupal!) though not with all the Aegir goodness we've come to love.

Related to: #1369242: add a (drush) fossilize command.

I think this would basically require re-factoring all the Drupal specific stuff out into a service, so that a static site just wouldn't implement that service.

Note that this is also related to #705026: Allow creation of example.com/foo and example.com/bar type of sites (Part I) in that one solution for subdirectory sites is to decouple sites from virtual hosts and just hook into existing vhosts.
