Yeah... don't you know the rule... get a good idea and you own it.

I think there's a need for a better way to test web apps in general and to describe the state models so that they can be tested in a sane way. I just don't have a clue as to how to do it. But... I think it ties in with the JavaScript enhancements I want to see in 1.1. Perhaps there's some sort of state/logic combinator thingy that can emit client-side JS, sync data, and be very testable.
