Walter, if you or any other power users out there, have any recommendations on backend usability upgrades, please make sure that these kind of things start to make their way to a larger list that's being developed for the hackathon.

They seemed more fluid underIE, and better behaved. An example that bothered me the most was the validation page.FF would pass bad variables, IE worked perfect. FF would submit bad data on an "Enter", IE would only submit when the submit button was pushed, and all fields has proper data.Besides ecommerce, I see lots of places that it would be important to be able to configure back office UI elementsto use ajax instead of plain html.Clickable, sortable columns are a given in client/server ERP's that I have seen, and one feature that I have had to apologize for when training people in ofBiz when they instinctively click on a column heading and nothing happens. If it looks even remotely like Excel, users expect it to act like Excel.Do you think there will be elements sometime in the future utilizing ajax tools to aid in data verification? E.g. running a service to determine/correct city and state from a given zip code? CASS correcting addresses as they are entered?-- Walter
