Actually, in our case we tried to avoid using a web browser because these thin clients are very specific for virtualization, so users should use them *only* to manage their VMs and if they need to browse something, it would be done from a VM they have access to (for example, a disposable machine from a VmPool). Anyhow, this can also be done with a bit of tweaking on the browser side, so if the project is finally released we'll consider it.

Yep, it is supposed to be lightweight enough so it runs or tablets and mobiles, so even thin clients should be ok as long as they are capable of running a modern browser
Our hope is that it is simple enough so people can actually contribute and improve it as well on github, and make it more useful (unlike the existing portal)

As a last resource we can use the web admin but the purpose is to have a few thin clients which would start the client at boot time so it's more confortable for users, plus most times the web admin becomes slow after a while.
