Hi,
I think this would be a good idea.
For example: the way analyzed data (plier/rma) is stored in the database,
and presented to the users, is not very usefull (at least if you want to use
this data in another app.). It would be more useful to also present the
output as file so the user can download it easily without first using an
exporter plugin.
Also, when the webservices will be extended, it may be easier to access
these files/data.
