Hi,
I'd like to propose to vote to add this new feature in 1.1RC2
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1671
I know we should not add features, but this one would allow to run
groovy script requiring libs not included in the xwiki release.
For example this could allow to package the Google Docs Summer of
Code project as a pure extension without configuration and even
restart.
It's implementatin is very safe, as nothing changes unless you add
a param or a value in the context.

I told you on chat that I was ok with this. However I'm having second
doubts... Sorry :)
I'd like to know more why we need to do this now. Why not commit it
on trunk? It'll be in 1.2M1 in 2/3 weeks. Radu's plugin will not be
integrated/cleaned up/etc before that time anyway and even then it
would still work with 1.1 users, it's only a matter of installation.
I don't think we should rush this. It's not so much a question of
taking risks or not that doing a precedent. If we do this now, then
we're breaking our RC rule and it'll happen again in the future (I
think we could potentially remove betas and RCs in the future when we
have 70% or more covered by automated tests but we're not there yet.
So, unless there's a good reason I haven't seen, I'd rather not
commit this right now on the 1.1 branch.
WDYT?
Thanks
-Vincent
