It'd be a little more interesting if the source wasn't obfuscated or provided in full elsewhere.

I was planning to upgrade to JavascriptMVC 3.0 before open sourcing it but if you want to see the source as-is let me know.

Needs filters to be useful but otherwise very cool.

Thanks for the feedback. If you click on the magnifying glass in each column header you'll get a filter for that column.

Some things would be improved with more attention to accessibility. Ext.tree.TreePanel, for instance, allows keyboard navigation out of the box. In a similar vein, the results grid doesn't allow row selection/keyboard navigation (ref. Ext.grid.RowSelectionModel).

For filter icons usually a funnel is used:

Magnifying glasses typically represent search.
