IMHO there are 2 issues

1) the POST/GET functionality must be checked and maybe enhanced
2) authentication may be an issue, but maybe this would bloat weblet, 
especially if we still want to support floppies

I only did a few preliminary tests to see if weblet _can_ be used for 
configuration. If POST / GET works with multiple parameters then the rest 
should be quite easy.
