Hi - 
In working on a CMS project, using a jackrabbit/jcr based product, we
wanted similar functionality - a way to browse the repo.

We found a google code project called jc-rest:
http://code.google.com/p/jc-rest/
It has this type of functionality, and is based on YUI. It works well
for getting an easy view into all details of the repository. Currently,
it only exposes a single workspace, but I don't think it would be hard
to change that to expose all workspaces.

As for running it as a bundle in sling, you may be able to refactor the
YUI/JavaScript code in the browser to use sling urls, instead of the
RESTful services that jc-rest provides on server side.

I have also considered creating a Flex/Flash version of something like
this.

I'm not familiar with GWT either but if could add my 50 cents I'd
propose
the use of YUI that is powerful and that has a wide range of widgets.
