I testd it with Netscape 4.76 on Solaris 8 and IExplorer 6 on win2000 it
worked well.

IMHO a 'killer app' does more than a beautiful home page.
For example I would be happy to hack in elisp or scheme on eclipse
instead of learn the plugin framework: I think it will be easier.
A web service framework can be interesting too: most of the pieces are
there (Servlet compilation, XML output etc.) maybe a tutorial can help.
