CIao Chris, a clarification. I meant to say that IMHO all we need is the ability to import a pyramid once GDAL_RETILE has created it not to be able to point the ImagePyramid plugin to a directory and do also automagic creation of the pyramid. I am not so sure this would work since:
1> the underlying request would timeout easily 2> the server would be unusable for a while. Of course we could think about adding a utility to GeoServer (rest extension or whatever) to do such tasks, but still I would be cautious and I would probably try to reuse GDAL_RETILE.
