Yay Apache and licensing issues...

It sounds to me like a reporting framework should not be linked to
JMeter's gui in any way - it serves no purpose.  What is needed is an
extendable framework for writing reporting components that take a .jtl
file and convert it to whatever report a user wants.  Running this tool
should be simple and not tied to JMeter itself (though a menu option to
run a report on a jtl would be good).

I don't know what form is should take - ready-made xslt scripts (yuck),
JasperReport scripts (or whatever - I'm not familiar with Jasper), or
something else.

Keep in mind a .jtl file can be either an xml or csv format.
