I would second this.

At least I know the core OS is secure and stable.  The only thing I need to
worry about is the Frontpage extension itself.  Customers are customers ...
they want what they want, and if I don't give it to them, they'll take their
money elsewhere.

That's one more reason to get it running in a jail.  I will report back my
success or failure ...
