Which I am definitely not ... I even have my difficulties with highly advanced
perl that Proxmox is using (it's not C/C++) ;)

I guess there will be more Storage Plugins available in the near Future (e.g:
DRBD9) and I am writing currently a simple RAW device and a DRBD8 plugin. So
there is the need for a concept how to integrate this into the GUI. I mean how
the GUI storage related part is dynamically generated out of the storage
plugins.
This could even be beneficial for the core Proxmox storage Plugins which may
be developed in the future. I mean this would save engineering time of the GUI
developer, when a new plugin is designed for the core Proxmox code.

I hope there is such an experienced extjs programmer you mentioned on the list
to provide a concept. Then there will be surly someone who will implement it
later.
