Imagine Helma 2.0 would *only* add a helma object to the global object. 
No res, no req, no session, no root etc. Only the core javascript/rhino 
objects plus the helma object. The entire framework environment would 
be initialized through javascript and your application would need to 
call helma.init() to setup the global objects of the recommended 
framework.

+1 for tabula rasa in the global name space :-)
