I tried very hard to code this back in.  It is a nightmare. I've given
up for now.  The only way I could find to do it involved so much php
and javascript interaction that it was a real nightmare.  I will
probably try again sometime, when I have more freetime, but for now
I'm dumping it and will concentrate on documentation for horde.

Just want to confirm that doing this, and doing this right, is not
at all an easy job!
