Hunchentoot question

I see plenty of tutorials discussing placing Hunchentoot ~behind~ another webserver (ie, Apache), but is there any good reason I can't run Hunchentoot by itself as the only webserver?

Thanks for any insight.

The biggest drawback is that any port below 1024 is reserved for root. You could setgui as described in this post, but it's probably just easier to run a reverse proxy server like nginx in front of it.
