Thomas, To add SSH viewer, a few things need to keep in mind 1) CloudStack UI is purely running inside a browser, browser sandbox would prevent it from launching external applications 2) CloudStack UI may also be running across multiple platforms (Windows, linux, Mac OS), each platform has its own terminal applications 3) The selected VM may not have public accessible IP, and for certain guest OS, there is no default SSH service daemon.
