This is to facilitate support for this feature on the Web, where the
plugin needs to start a server instead of Auracite itself. Otherwise,
the functionality is identical to before.
There's some data we want to save that's not available on the Lodestone,
for example playtime information. Now you can install the Dalamud plugin
(not currently distributed) to save playtime information.
In the future, we can expand this to all sorts of interesting things!
