In truth I had AJAX on my brain from another (gracefully degrading) area
of the project, and it was late at night; but upon later brain reboot, I
realized that AJAX is not necessary for what we want to do. And
regarding Mike Taylor's earlier comment about VuFind and Blacklight,
I'll have a look at how much we can peel off of VuFind. I don't think
we're equipped to consider a non-PHP solution at this point.
