Series 4.x idea

Written for RemoteCP Panel by Lars Vierbergen on 2011-12-13

For series 4.x I have a nice idea. Why not use our own REST API to speed our panel up?
We will just drop all templating on the server in favour of templates in the browser (with javascript and mustache [http://mustache.github.com/]). Javascript will asynchronously query our REST API and dynamically update the provided templates.
By doing so we avoid having double code (one for the panel and one for the REST API) and it will be possible to have several front end servers running to do load balancing.
