Stephen, the main feature for 3.3 of w3af_webui is statistics & diagrams to make w3af more usable for enterprise usage. Support of AJAX web apps is good point for research. It is really difficult to implement but modern web application scanner should support it.
I have already made some experiments on integration Selenium and w3af for naturally detecting DOM-based XSS (this research available only on Russian, sorry). Such integration have and advantages and disadvantages (very slow solution). I think we will discuss it a lot with Andres and all you guys at w3af-develop@.
