What is exactly the use case of the web wallet?

Regarding security, this seems catastrophically risky. The browser is an insecure environment [1], and hacking a server is common once money is involved, as illustrated multiple times with exchanges.

Genuinely interested to learn more, hoping these problems have been taken into account when developing the web wallet.

Works great!  My computer couldn't handle the full wallet so I finally got to play around with BTS.

FYI I transferred some BTS from Poloniex, but it doesn't show the transaction history for some reason. 

Anyways thanks!

The app.js is in size of 5MB and is not getting cached in my Chrome browser, which means it is fetched from the server every time when the page loads (slowly). Almost killed my limited Internet bandwidth.

Advice:
1, add Expires and Last-Modified HTTP headers to static files
2, compress .map files while transferring
3, reduce the size of app.js by removing useless code or some kind of compressing

Despite of above issue, the wallet works fine for me.

I cannot find the 'Console'.  Is it in the web wallet?

Click your username > Advanced > Console

I think this layout is new to 6.0+

Can we trade on web wallet? I can't... Should I wait a little bit more? ;)

Trade, sure just another 1000 lines of code .. no problem!  I know it is worth it to you.  I'll make it happen.

Looks like it was team members who bought up the BTS because they knew they were about to release the web wallet/ light wallet :)

Your not alone, I learned about the release schedule when Dan announced it in the Friday's Mumble session; before that it I was in the dark too.  I'm more of a systematic investor than a news guy so that helps me keep things simple.  I'm up late adding more cores (CPUs) to the server, it looks like people are using it.. So, I hope to have some more horsepower online soon.
