I'm not sure if I'm following this right. Will the Dashboard
tab appear on Kimchi or will it display a new panel-group with the peers list by adding
the following lines to Gingerbase?
<head>
...
#for $script in $data.scripts
<script type="text/javascript" src="$script"></script>
#end for
</head>
What if the user only has Kimchi installed and not Gingerbase?
