Some UI dynamics would be great to package with Exhibit itself. It would
be nice for any visitor to an exhibit to be able to add new columns to a
tabular view, and delete existing ones, or re-color-code existing map
and time line views... The idea is to let the author have his/her say at
how the exhibit should look and behave originally, but also let
individual visitors change that default to suit their needs without
having to copy the data off to somewhere else first and manipulating it
off-line.
Maybe we can start accumulating some ideas here:
