Bugfixes and Cleanup

This morning, I startd really using my local SVN repository again, pending SourceForge approval; not doing so yesterday turned out to be a significant performance hit; it definitely didn't help that the AC adapter for my laptop died the day before.

I immediately rolled in the bug-fixes of the past two days, plus a few more:

• most notably, 2wayDaemon's polling no longer spams the DOM with empty elements.
  
• 2WayUI's o2e() now inserts elements with the correct tag name.
• The loopback-link creation is both simpler and more reliable.
• Several redundant and/or outdates files are gone.
• The /params service is functional once again.
• Exernal dependencies (currently CherryPy and TinyMCE) have tarballs in /vendor.

I'm currently wrapping my head around the UI calls so I can get TinyMCE support working: first I'll get one editor to show up and show changes near-instantly, then I'll expand the function to allow any number of concurrent editors. If I recall correctly, the second part may be bumpier than one would think, but I'm less worried about it with better debugging tools than I had the last time I tried this -- most notably FireBug 0.4, with stack traces for errors.

I also found a few Javascript Lint tools yesterday:

• Javascript Lint is pretty, but lax.
• JSLint is ugly, but far more useful.
• This Blogpost mentions a few other tools I should investigate.
