At the moment yes. I just started work on a GUI about 3 hours ago and a new 
deployment system. If that works out then I am not sure ... still 
experimenting.

It will be enabled ... eventually. Not sure when though. Depends on how 
things evolve. I really have limited time at the moment.  It is something 
needed for me to support my needs. Eventually blocks will be able to be 
dynamically updated from urls. But what you are talking about 
(reassemply/recomposing) is a step required beforehand. Before recomposing we 
need to have a management system implemented so that we can actually trigger 
recomposing ;)
