+1. I would prefer Ajax-related additions to be a separate subsystem 
(application, middleware, bunch of related classes, and so on), which should 
be used only when app developer says so.

Right. I don't think that Django should have "AJAX in the core". Simple 
no-nonsense HTML-only web side should be possible. I do think Admin would 
gain a lot in terms of usability from going Ajax. I do think that 
reinventing wheels is not necessary, when there are true and tried 
libraries, which are supported and enhanced without our direct involvement.

Thanks,
