Given the huge amount of time that was already invested in this, and
the endless list of issues raised on this thread, we froze further
progress.

It would be great if someone with better UX skills could step up and
continue this work.
(Which includes actually writing the needed CSS and HTML and not just
sending mockups...)

It a completely new code base, we will need to redo everything from
scratch. But we probably aught to do that, because it seems like the
way forward for Gerrit.

IMO it would look out of place with the other oVirt web assets.
Personally I don't like WebAdmin going that way either. oVirt had
always been green, its part of its brand. To change this, everything
else needs to also change: ovirt.org, Jenkins, Jira, etc.
