i think we definitely need an updated admin interface, yes!
I agree. We've never put much emphasis on the admin pages, and they
could really use more functionality and a fresher look.
Ideally, we could get rid of all the JSP and do everything with
requestHandlers + XSLT.
Seems rather pointless if the look or functionality isn't improved.
I'd personally find it much harder to debug or enhance pages that try
to do *everything* in XSLT.
Where it makes sense to export info programatically, a request handler
can be used, but that's certainly not in all the cases.
Then everything could work with only a JRE -
AFAIK, all of the newest servlet containers can run off a JRE. When
Jetty 6.1 becomes stable, we should use that in the example.
