Yes, good idea - if we never try it we'll never know :)
When I added the autodeployment stuff to Cocoon I looked at the jetspeed stuff and reused most of it. Unfortunately I can't really remember why I did not just use the original code - I think one thing was that it was not using dom to rewrite the descriptors and I didn't want to add additional libraries to Cocoon and the other was that at that time some notification mechanism was missing.
