Thanks for your kind words

The AJAX pop-up summary panels are generated by FreeMarker templates - so it is possible to modify them and use our extensive new FreeMarker API for 2.1 to perform all sorts of exciting functions:

Currently the template locations are hardcoded, that will be made configurable (and therefore overridable) for 2.1 final:

For now you can try modifying the template in the expanded WAR file in tomcat, look for: \tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\templates\client\node_summary_panel.ftl

Thanks,

Kevin
