Wonderful and thanks for the detailed info, but ... well, this does not defeat my point: it is anyhow stuff that you won't get using the SOAP interface anyhow, it is mostly presentational stuff. So I continue not seeing the tension between offline mode and porting bts to the SOAP interface: the offline mode can stay there, while the online mode will use soap.
