Description

Problem with current native API is that the ESP is the server. That was an intentional decision that makes setup much easier (and so the default will stay that way).

However, for things like deep sleep the api needs to be turned around: A central server (kind of like MQTT broker) that all ESPs connect to. Current plan is to incorporate this new server directly into HA.
