improved security for the Manager and Host Manager applications, Generic
CSRF protection, support for including external content directly in a
web application (aliases), re-factoring (connectors, life-cycle) and
lots of internal code clean-up.

The 7.0.2 release contains numerous bug fixes and an important security
