Great news, web-armory people! The daemon is being included with armory itself so will be up to date and more fully featured than I ever could have achieved.

see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=56424.msg1443054#msg1443054 for details.

I will keep this thread open to discuss the particulars of using armory on webservers, as the daemon is not strictly only for use on webservers (may be used for, say, running your uniquely common yet complex task easily, or remotely controlling your armory application).
