I can think of 2 solutions (haven't thought much about it though):
* Based on a hash of the page which will work if the page(s) haven't been modified
* Based on an Application Descriptor that the user would install and that lists all the
pages making up the application and by modifying the EM to support reading from these
descriptors to find installed apps

Hi Roman,

It's not that easy, there is no way to know that a wiki page is coming
from some application without talking of what is the id/version of
this application if it hasn't been installed by Extension Manager. Hi Sergiu,
Those are fine improvements, I'm curious though.
* Will the extension manager pick-up/show the extensions I have already installed?
It depends… :)
The EM will pick up all jars put in WEB-INF/lib or in the classpath in general.
However if you've installed pages from a XAR by importing it then no it won't
notice it (AFAIU - Thomas should confirm this).
It's a good point though, we might want to do something to handle this use case.
* Will there be a UI/functionality for removing
previously installed extension? (Especially in those cases when plugin installation
required copying and container restart like
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Excel+Plugin )
Yes, this is already possible. The UI should already allow for this too.
Since this is our very first release of an EM UI we would love to have some feedback, not
so much about the UI itself (we're not finished yet about what we want to achieve, see
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/ExtensionManager).
Sergiu: do we have support for merge conflicts and handling them in this first UI?
Thanks
-Vincent
