The service health check goal is an *excellent* example of an area where
a relatively small number of people can have a big impact on the entire
project. We need someone to spend the time to think about how the health
check middleware knows which checks to run, and then to ensure that the
middleware is added to all the services' WSGI stacks. I think a small
team of 2-3 people could make quick work of this one.

I would like to see the folks asking for this one contribute to working
out those details, with help from project team experts.
