Description Malgorzata Janczarska

Task list should implement a smart autorefresh, long-polling that would reduce unnecessary jam and made tasks list usable as a "hint".
Preferably we should use also some kind of delta to avoid sending details of tasks that did not change for ages.

This is done use
GET /task?Longpolling=true to start longpolling and then
GET /task?Longpolling=true&LongpollingId=[id returned by previous GET] to long poll

The mechanism should be re-written when we move to Jetty 8. Opened Bug 365917 for that.
