At the moment, the work on webcoon was halted waiting for C2's 
InputModule concept. It seems like the C2 folks just finished this. As 
time permits, I'll look how webcoon can benefit from it.

Side note: There is another upcoming feature in C2 which looks very 
promising. Simply speaking, it's a JavaScript driven view mapping. Using 
such a technology could reduce the verbosity of view mappings while at 
the same time improve its readability. Feature has yet to stand the 
reality check, of course.

As for the inclusion of webcoon in the main dist, I think it's a too 
large for that. If there proves to be a market for it, one could add it 
as separate dist on SourceForge's download area someday.
