[jbosstools-dev] Embedded javascript in the VPE visual document?

[Marshall Culpepper]

At runtime, our widgets are rendered using Javascript. It would help
tremendously if we could execute the same script in VPE so I don't have to
reinvent the wheel in Java.... (though calling into JS using Rhino is
another option, but I'm guessing nowhere near as effecient)
