well, on the other hand a dynamic web page load is *guaranteed* to break at a certain point in time due to layout changes outside our control. *Our* users will then believe that we've messed it up. What about only downloading the images (less likely to change and even if so, everything else remains usable) and keeping a static skeleton? All of the interesting matrices will be included. > Is this tab needed?

If you keep a static list instead of loading and manipulating a webpage, even this 'download and run' feature is much easier than updating a webpage dynamically. The more I think about it, the more I like to see a static mirror. This can be created automatically without much effort.
