Body
Responding to the statement regarding Java as a possible plug-in architecture: It turns out Java has been used to devise plug-in architecture systems for many years. As to to client-side, the Equinox OSGi module management frameworks is probably the best well known. At one point the Eclipse IDE refactored their plug-in architecture on top of Equinox OSGi. Eclipse IDE is perhaps one of the most successful client-side plug-in architecture systems yet devised - from historical longevity point of view as well as breadth of user base and follow-on community of plug-in development. They also offer their plugin architecture as a foundational framework for devising arbitrary client-side applications - Eclipse RCP. I just had to interject this because though Java was positioned as perhaps a very weak choice for this, it actually is far more successful than any other language/runtime environment to date in delivering working systems of this kind - especially vs. C# .NET, which, of course, has good innate facility for modules. Is kind of ironic, but there you have it. As to Adobe AIR, I'm dev managing a project this is being devised on AIR. In our case our module extensibility is always going to be delivered from the web server - not a local directory. Flex has the <code><mx:Module/></code> tag for creating modules that can be loaded discretely at runtime. Alas, a frustration with AIR is its lack of any class APIs for launching other applications. You can load a URL to load something in the user's default browser, but you can't launch, say, Excel. Both Java and C# have APIs for launching other apps as external processes.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
