It would be nice if it could be separate though, that way you could more 
easily change the script (or even serve per-client scripts.. :)

I don't think it would be that hard to add either (speaking to mir here :) 
have a look in dispatch.c and see how dispatch_load_floppy() works. You can 
probably add something into main() to call a function pretty easily.
