Would it be possible to have Alfresco behave more like other open source application platforms (such as Wordpress).
* Plugins can be applied either by uploading a directory, or automatically slip streaming them in from a file server.
* Themes are uploaded to a directory, and appear in the available theme list.
* The ability to configure alfresco from the Admin dashboard.
* Update all plugins and core code from the Admin dashboard.
The advantages of being able to update everything from the admin area, and have changes applied there and then would help to make Alfresco a much more user friendly platform
