I must have missed something, because this does not make a lick of sense: pychart is used to generate charts *for server-side reports only* (there are like 2 of them left), why would the server require a javascript runtime and library to add a chart to a report?

I can understand wanting to get rid of PyChart, and either removing all report charts or switching to an other Python charting library (Chaco, Matplotlib, CairoPlot, …), but I can't see going through 5 levels of external crap as sensible.
