Sorry, I was trigger-happy with the delete button... :) I agree about 
the easy create call. I'll put that back.

Will you help me test that? I think it's easier to have a real 
"customer" for that feature, as I myself don't use it much, yet.

By the way, you can now add (and I believe, remove) facets on the fly. 
The create function here
    
http://simile.mit.edu/repository/exhibit/branches/2.0/src/webapp/api/scripts/component.js
can create a component out of a configuration object. The component will 
take over the provided elmt. Or you can also use the other specific 
create* functions. I haven't tested them.


I'd like to release Exhibit 2.0 before I go to WWW 2007 (May 8). We 
should start nailing down which features we absolutely want it in there. 
Let's coordinate through
