Hi James, Thanks for getting back so quickly.
I see two major areas of extensibility required:
1) Allow plugging in of custom themes
2) Allow for easy extensibility/re-use of existing themes (currently
SimpleTheme or DefaultTheme)
1) We need a way of specifying custom themes to the JavaTemplateEn
Do you want to implement the plugin using Java instead of FreeMarker?
Unless the output is very simple, generating javascript from java will
be a pain to write and maintain.

Ultimately, I'd like to implement in both. I've already done some custom
themes for the ftl templates, so I know that will work but I'd like to use
the java templates as well, at least initially. Nonethess, it makes sense to
make the java templates extensible. I can see plently of developers using
I don't know if any plugging mechanism for themes has been discussed. Please
send us your thoughts.
