I'm very excited about introducing AJAX functionality into the admin console so I'm glad you brought this up. I think Dojo's BSD license makes it OK for Geronimo and IIUC Apache Myfaces is planning to use it for their AJAX controls. We should also keep an eye on kabuki, which is a project in the Apache incubator based on the AJAX toolkit from zimbra.
If you are targeting the LDAP viewer for Geronimo v1.2 then version 0.3 of Dojo might work best since it is very close to release. DWR seems like a good candidate for your transport layer since the console already uses it. But Dojo provides a rich IO library on top of XMLHTTP that may integrate more cleanly with the widget library. Maybe there is some way to combine them to get the best of both worlds (nothing comes to my mind). JSON looks promising as well.
