[mythtv] more mythweb updates

It's your humble opinion and I humbly agree with it. I just thought it
was funny. But in reality its a very good example of the things that are
possible with the amount of interesting data that is "out there".

And you are absolutely right that the web interface should offer as much
of the functionality as the X interface.
Does this mean that the web interface itself will support plug-ins as
well? So a module author could include a web module to go with what he
has made?

And even though restricted by bandwidth I would still love to be able to
access the video streams over the internet, even if it wouldn't be
actually usable for viewing purposes it would still be useful to for
example check if the correct program had been recorded.

Cheers,
 -Tako
