Neat - I hadn't seen that. Makes perfect sense for the MapServer world.
And a little friendly competition is always motivating! (Although
TileMill has been providing this in spades for a while now...)
The ScribeUI looks heavier-weight than I was thinking of. Could a useful
styling editor be built 100% browser-based, using a combination of
OpenLayers, custom JS/CSS/HTML, and taking advantage of the GeoServer REST
API?
The other feature that would be useful is an ability to migrate styles (and
perhaps layers) between GeoServer instances. Hopefully the REST API allows
this too to be done via a browser.
