This is about more than just CSS and JavaScript - there are plenty of reasons someone might want to bundle HTML as well, e.g. for building something like https://sf-tree-search.now.sh/

So, instead of thinking about this in terms of /static/, I'm going to think about this in terms of allowing people to mount one or more document roots (or docroots).

datasette serve mydb.db -d my-doc-root/

This will cause the root of the server to show content from the my-doc-root/ directory (assuming it has an index.html file in it).

A more common option will be to mount specific folders to specific directories, like this:

datasette serve mydb.db -d static:my-static/

Now any hits to /static/foo.css will serve content from my-static/foo.css
