   * '''Facilitate the authentification issue''' Authentification is a 
functionality used by most of the websites. However there is no "standardised" 
way to deal with it. Furthermore, an easy to specify in the template an user 
should be logged to access this template would be welcomed as well.
  
-  * '''A standard @Style component a la TapFX's @Style component to improve 
including styling for a component. Having it rendered in the head tag, proper, 
would rid many a page of being loaded, then flickering/"popping" into a new 
style sheet, as the declaration in JS to dynamically include a style sheet is 
only reached after other things have been loaded. Infrastructure would need 
some slight modifications in the head tag. This would hopefully be a beefed up 
Style component, which did things like branching on evaluated values (as you 
might with a .script). At it's most useful, it would handle different media 
types and other, arbitrary kinds of branches, like ((IE < 6)+quirksmode), or 
user agents. ASP.NET had/has(?) agent profiles, whereby components rendered 
'upstream' content, and 'downstream' content. I think the same mechanism is in 
place for serving WML controls vs. html controls, etc. Dojo has a conditional 
package mechanism where certain code is enabled based on the r
 untime environment present (common, browser, rhino, etc). So there's 
definitely precedant for this thing. The component would hopefully support both 
a CSS 'spec' (like .script) AND a plain old .css. I don't like having to create 
a .script JUST to include a .js. A standard @Style mechanism would also promote 
higher quality components that shipped with useful, overridable, defaults, like 
the list pallette component.

   * '''Could we modify @Script to accept a toggle to tell it to include .js OR 
.script. If it was inserting just a .js, then the parametes would be ignored, i 
suppose.
