Yes, I recall something about show/hide but it’s fuzzy now.

I did however, conclude that we are all hosed!

The value of things like the AJAX list panel that can load up new batches or a 
tab panel that reloads like magic?

These old Ajax frameworks have tricks to override rules in D2W so simply adding 
the framework inserts itself into the interface frameworks beautifully.

Then I went into the AJAX frameworks to trace the code and found the group of 
them to be deeply intertwined, and the code depends on long hierarchies of 
those too-long-inheritance chains that we’ve all seen arise over time. You just 
keep going into superviews and different WOD bindings until you are lost.

I strongly sense we’d have to quite literally rewrite a batch of related 
frameworks -- and we’d have to be able to use the same code/D2W trickery to 
make the new frameworks ride on top of our apps seamlessly.

However, it IS possible to do!

I wish I had a solution to this problem.
