• [gui.ajax] Fix various things in JS files for FilesList class impermeability.
• [access.smb] Make sure to register smb:// wrapper (bug in cross-repository copy)
• [access.ajxp_confDriver] Not very nice, but working, make sure to register meta.svn & meta.git after the others (will trigger the hooks accordingly) @todo : generic reflexion on the hooks/plugins ordering.
