+    This does two main things.
+
+    First, it replaces the requestFactory in use so that we build SynapseRequests
+    instead of regular t.w.server.Requests. All of the  constructor params are really
+    just parameters for SynapseRequest.
+
+    Second, it inhibits the log() method called by Request.finish, since SynapseRequest
