Yes, that's the direction we are taking, and ultimately that's what we 
want to offer

I didn't know Gliffy so far. Also the tool is different, we have a 
similar integration with Balsamic mockups 
(http://www.balsamiq.com/products/mockups/xwiki).
If the Gliffy team is willing to develop this integration, we can help 
for them for sure (and if an organization is willing to sponsor part of 
the development, we can also find resources and take an active part in 
writing the plugin).

Thanks for the feedback on XWiki's products :)

Cheers,
Jerome.
