Interesting stuff, though I can see a few oddities:

- The application should not use that much canvas place. It should be 
limited to a static size somehow. (I'm getting artifacts on the "Edit" 
button because it's just too wide and it just looks a bit odd.)
- &, < and > ought to be escaped or you will get XML parser errors.

Still, very nice. I can see how this could be useful in intranets etc.
