Hi Sergiu,

GWT has 3 main jars:
gwt-servlet-1.7.0.jar
gwt-user-1.7.0.jar
gwt-dev-1.7.0-linux.jar
Some of the main packages from the user jar are:
com.google.gwt.dom
com.google.gwt.emul
com.google.gwt.user
The dom package exposes, obviously, the JavaScript DOM API in Java code.
We have extended what this package offers and created the xwiki-gwt-dom
module.
The user package contains utility classes like Timer, Random or
DeferredCommand and basic widgets (ui.* package) like CheckBox or
RichTextArea. We have extended what this package offers with other
useful utility classes like Console, ShortcutKeyManager or
DeferredUpdater and other widgets (widget.* package) like
VerticalResizePanel, improved RichTextArea, generic dialog wizard.
In order to be consistent I proposed a xwiki-gwt-user module. I'm open
to your suggestions regarding the name.
Anyway, this module will be generic (reusable in any GWT application)
without any XWiki specific code.
Hope it's clear now,
Marius

These can remain in the WYSIWYG source tree for the moment but I'm
considering moving them to the gwt module which is XWiki specific.
You can see the current sources here

Here's my +1. WDYT?
Why "user"? It doesn't look like a user thing to me, perhaps I'm wrong.
Can you explain what this code does in more details?
