Simple metrics integration to drive contribution & usage dashboard
Enabling localization
- pulling strings out (informed by MVC model)

Strengthening existing core:
- sign-in gets you redireted to user.appmaker.mozillalabs.com (security)
- pick test framework, write tests, mandate test for designer UI (quality)
- pick component test approach, write tests, mandate tests for new tier-1 components? (quality)
- pick MVC model, refactor UI (quality/agility). ember vs. angular?
