I think that having a web server to handle Tor requests would defeat the purpose of obfuscation because the server's IP address would be public and censors could easily block any connections to it rendering it useless.
It's not so easy if users host their own torified CGIproxies on their own servers. - Ok, how many users are technically able and willing to do that?
We called this remote-proxy access in "Anonymous Connections and Onion Routing" https://www.onion-router.net/Publications.html#JSAC-1998
Thanks for the link!
(Somebody should really put the early onion routing papers on anonbib, almost none of them are there. Copious free time and all that I guess.)
(For some value of copious free time? :) )
