Added two new plugins for
refactoring views into the core:
- structurer
- themes
Recent changes to views with using jxtg as core component
made the old view plugins unusable (FOR-675)
which can not longer stay like this.
I recommend to rollback:
- org.apache.forrest.plugin.internal.view
- org.apache.forrest.plugin.output.viewHelper.xhtml
to revision -r280939 and then commit them back as views head.
Why can't we just roll back trunk to a stable version, and move the
views/xhtml2 work to a new branch? I think thats much neater, and easier both
on devs and users alike. People can hack away on the views/xhtml2 branch
without having to worry about breaking trunk for someone.

In fact this is exactly what we agreed in the IRC session:
Sep 19 11:17:31 <tscherler> - we should get the xhtml2 and view internal
together
Sep 19 11:18:03 <tscherler> - xhtml2 should be merged into the internal
views stuff, simply replace the docuemnt2html part
Sep 19 11:18:42 <tscherler> - x2 plugin should provide xdocs2x2 convertion
Sep 19 11:19:17 <tscherler> - views should work with x2 input
Sep 19 11:21:15 <tscherler> - we need to write a x2 to xhtml plugin
Sep 19 11:21:52 <tscherler> that should be basically a bunch of contracts
Sep 19 11:22:19 <tscherler> roadmap:
Sep 19 11:22:31 <tscherler> 1) create new branch
Sep 19 11:22:48 <tscherler> 2) move view stuff and x2 stuff into core
Sep 19 11:23:10 <tscherler> 3) resolving by both only allowed through lm
Sep 19 11:23:37 <tscherler> 4) create xdocs2x2 plugin
Sep 19 11:24:10 <tscherler> 5) create x2 to xhtml plugin
Sep 19 11:24:41 <tscherler> in this branch all skins are removed
Sep 19 11:24:52 <tscherler> only view is supported
Sep 19 11:25:19 <tscherler> skin pipes are to be refactored to output
xhtml2
