If i wanted to use Pd to generate sound for a web application, i'd have to keep an instance of Pd running on the server continuously, right? And keep all the patches i need open? Which means that if any patch crashes Pd there'll be no sounds anymore?

Well, the question is how the audio is getting to the user.  As you said, WebPd requires FF4's audio API.  If you want the actual Pd running on a server then you need a way of hearing the output.  In my own pd-on-the-web project, PuréeData, I'll be using an mp3 or ogg stream.  Latency will be an issue, but hopefully not a tremendously bad one.

Huh, if it really goes over the internet, not just on localhost, expect a latency of 1-10sec...
