[kepler-dev] kepler "instantiate component" from a url

[Dan Higgins]

Hi Eric,
    I have wondered the same thing! Kepler just copied this dialog field 
from Ptolemy. I have never tried using that field. I am curious how it 
handles the java class file loading from a web server. (You can open 
workflows from a web server, at least when the underlying java classes 
are already on the Kepler machine.)
