Thank you Marco,

I will be happy to hear about your testing results and I highly
appreciate all advice that you can give me!
I'm sure that there are many improvements that can be made to my
hack-ish proof-of-concept implementation.

A quick question: python plugins only add an #include and two lines of
code in qgis_map_serv.cpp, a #ifdef SERVERPLUGINS block should be
enough to disable them completely, where should I add that option to
let cmake know about it?
