Feature added, part of main trunk. Basic testing complete.

Details include:
1) using itext and flying saucer to generate pdf reports. see:
http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2007/06/26/generating-pdfs-with-flying-saucer-
and-
itext.html

2) pdf is generated based on html report. it basically generates the html 
report and 
uses itext and flying saucer to convert to PDF. As a result, any javascript 
widgets, 
such as google visualizations, will be omitted.

Needs more testing, will be included in 1.1 release.

Did you test the PDF generation with Flying Saucer on GAE? 

I had a quick try at it for a project of mine and because of the blacklisted 
AWT classes that Flying Saucer is using, I was not able to use Flying Saucer to 
generate PDF files from XHTML templates on GAE (on the real servers). 

Of course this works fine when I try it on my local environment.
