What motivated me to reply were the facts that the really simple answer has
already been posted by Dan and that this discussion now turns into a "how to
checkout&read foreign code" manual. In my opinion this is not really GWT
specific since as I posted Wave is a project of its own. One could kindly
ask there about UI development and specifics. Come on, just try and hit
Google with Wave, read and click and you'll immediately find the project and
even the source brows-able online; guys you don't even have to check it out.
What else besides Dan's reply do you need?

Now in what other reasonable manner could one answer politely and
constructive here?
- by showing people how to read and copy code? Well yes if non developers
ask but since this is GWT I assume members to have at least a bit knowledge
of software development.
- by manually copy/pasting code for the OP? Honestly please tell me no!
Especially since the targeted code does not belong to this group.
- ?
