There is no such page - I don't think all that many "optional" features have
been developed that aren't in the regular JMeter CVS.  I don't know about
them, in any case.

Downloading images in a web page and recording those times as well would
probably be useful to many people.  It hasn't been developed, to my
knowledge, so forge ahead!

Regarding your idea of listening on a per-controller basis, that would
probably be an excellent modification to JMeter's structure.  It would allow
people to extract more precise information about their web application if
JMeter took into account where in the test plan tree you added the listener.
I'll have to think about that.

Regarding HttpUnit and following links, I'm not real familiar with what
their components look like (I believe they use JTidy to parse HTML pages to
extract the links).  I've been working on such a module myself, and I've
already finished anchor extraction.  Now I'm working on forms.  I'm not
using JTidy because it appears to have zero javadocs, and I just stopped at
that point.  Easier to write my own.  Also, my plan for link extraction is
not so much to allow JMeter to spider on it's own, but rather to allow test
plan writers maximum flexibility in dealing with dynamic sites.  To that
end, I'm working on a module that will combine a test sample with the
previous server response to create a new test sample on the run.  I'll keep
ya'll informed of my progress.
