Dear All,

speaking as someone who wants to use openERP to sell real physical products to 
scientists all over the world I am delighted that openERP have seized the 
webstore issue with both hands and are set to launch something that looks like 
it could have a major impact on the market. It is clear that much more than 
just embracing the latest framework technology (bootstrap) and pasting it on 
top of a basic webstore platform they have done some innovative fundamental 
thinking and come up with a genuinely intuitive way of editing the webstore 
content in situ.

Think about it for one minute - how much easier will it be for translators to 
translate your website into their language - now that they can see the text 
they are translating when they can see it in the proper context - rather than 
editing the content in a some file tucked away with a line like 
$checkout_error1="Please correct form entry". How much easier will it be to 
design and build dedicated landing pages for specific products ecommerce SEO. 
How much easier will it be to not have to worry about bidirectional syncing 
between back-office system and webstore - perhaps with systems that may be 
upgraded at different times and might require repeated connector fixes ?

The concerns that people have over security are exactly the same as any 
webstore that is processing credit card information - sure openERP will get 
more attention from hackers around the world, now that they are putting their 
heads above the webstore parapet, especially once they discover that that if 
they can figure out your admin password (eg admin/admin) then they get free 
reign to edit your webstore content straight away. I have no doubt that the 
guys in belgium have thought about this and will be introducing techniques to 
help secure your openERP installs - amongst these may be the following:

1) IP range restriction for admin access.
2) IP blocking once you do spot an obvious hack attempt
3) Possible secondary access password for admin edits
4) Ability to roll-back content to a particular date (should the worst happen.)

Am I alone in thinking that openERP's webstore functionality could position it 
even more strongly to take many of the 1000's of installs from plain'ol 
webstores like magneto and opencart.
