and even more important a website can be updated to a new version in a
transactional fashion without the need to redeploy the whole web
application.
this is not only convenient for development, but also vital for a
productive environment.

Regarding the classloading part the only use case I can think of is
using it during development, I would try it and if it makes me more
productive I'm all for it, that's all I need to adhere to a new

applications I don't think it's a good idea. What's the difference
between the case commented by Robert and the imaginary scenario from
the incubator proposal?. I'm surely missing something here. Could
anyone shed some light?
It isn't for distributed applications. It is for version-controlled
applications, as in versioning an entire website including its
services so that the entire site can be moved back in time if needed.
And regarding the plugin framework, why would I use my content
repository as a key player in my component architecture?, is it
necessary/desirable?, Felix says everything is content, is it?, is it
a new architecture that one might call Content Oriented Architecture?
Web architecture. REST architectural style. "Everything is a resource
and all important resources should be identifiable with a URI."
Does that ring any bells?
