You -unfortunately, like many others- seem to follow hypes to extremes. Rather than saying "We need to change some functionallity and AJAX seems to fit in nice", you say "AJAX looks cool, now we only need to find functionallity for it".

Rather asking what the pros and cons are, you could suggest why this would be good to begin with. I see very little use for AJAX on perlmonks. With a pimp-my-site project to replace all functionallity with AJAX stuff, I can't browse perlmonks from my Xbox (using LinksBoks), nor from my command line (using Links) anymore.

So, where exactly would you like to put AJAX support and why would it be better to what there already is? When you have that straight, we can agree or (most likely) disagree with your proposals.
