the toxic combination is (a) virality and (b) remote end user access triggering the GPL rights.

You could have one but not the other. We really need "LAGPL" to parallel LGPL, to make it clear that there is a clear and well defined way to stop the "remote access" part of AGPL from propagating accidentally into proprietary code.
