apart from wait_message-like messages (please-wait windows) which is hard to
achieve, it works quite nicely for standalone tools (well diskdrake has some
pb, XFdrake testing the chosen config is not a good idea...)
as for installing via http, i don't know what the advantage could be over
exported display installs. technically it would not be a big deal.
to tell the truth, i mainly wanted to test the feasibility of having the
"interactive" DrakX library working on html the way it does for newt/gtk/stdio
(but stdio is buggy, and i'd also like a readline version). But we have no way
for the moment to really use the interactive_http, most of the drakxtools have
no real use at a server side (eg: mousedrake, keyboarddrake, XFdrake...)
