If you're going to use a block chain get account to send funds, etc. you have to be concerned about a man in the middle attack.

I use it over HTTPS but there is a place for a WIF key in config.json.   The WIF key may be much harder to use but it does not rely on the certificate authorities.

Also, is there a test blockchain we could use? (so far all my test have been done in live environment using a test wallet with a small amount of bts but I do realize we need a testing process better than this)

Yes there is ..
it's called XTS and is the develop branch AFAIK:
https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares/tree/develop

There are also some publicly known private keys for XTS that carry funds so you can test but I can't find the URL atm

Please note, that there also is DevShares which is like an intermediate network in between XTS and BTS!

//edit: found it:
https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares/blob/develop/dev-test-keys.txt

https://github.com/BitShares/BitShares-JS/tree/master/testnet

This one works for me...

XTS a private test net so you run all of the delegates in one process and you'll have to make your own market transactions. On the other hand you have control over all the market transactions.

how can i recover my wallet with the brain key？
I have delete the webwallet from my computer, and want to test how to recover before i really rely on it.

Goto to the website and refresh...   Use Recover Wallet

Can we have the open shorts orders and margin call orders show up in the web wallet like they do in the regular wallet? I know we can't actually use the exchange in the web wallet yet, but just having a more reliable source (bitsharesblocks.com often seems to be out-of-date or incorrect in the order books it displays for some reason) for short information through an easily accessible website is nice.

I also agree along the lines of what speedy is suggesting in that it would be nice to have one main read-only guest account (perhaps with the dashboard disabled and account pages made read-only so that no one could transfer funds to and from the account) which could have permalinks to the various views (like the exchange markets, delegate pages, account pages, etc.). By the way, I really appreciate being able to go into the console on a guest account (it is nice to quickly be able to load a web page and run blockchain_* accounts without even needing to type in a password).

CORRECTION: Open shorts / margins are only shown for one's own accounts.  This will be added when trading is added.

I thinking it might be good to drop the login and guest.  We should have a new landing page.  The Tollbar could then say "login" instead of "lock" then toggle (to lock) after a login.

Bytemaster's advice was to get a good  VPS..  This is serving us well...   We have SSD storage which is better for this software. This also means I can cluster and not have to worry as much about caching..

I have updated "pre_release" ... We have added a lot of your suggestions.  Re-post if I missed something.  A "key" change in this pre release is a new algorithm: Draft standard for BitShares Wallet Key Generation.  This standardizes how account keys are create for your accounts in the wallet.  The idea is to maximize compatibility between all BitShares Wallets.

https://wallet.bitshares.org/pre_release

The plan is to move the pre_release branch to the main wallet Saturday.  I'll be around on the weekend to monitor things.  I have submitted an entry about the online wallet to The NullStreet Journal for Monday's issue.. 

** Tomorrow, Friday, I'll make a few performance and refresh updates (mostly timing)..  **

EDIT: I will include support for the accounts registered prior to this release.

I will look forward to your feedback (kind words).
