the problem I had with this option tags was that they allowed "direct" configuration of HttpUnit options. I would have
been quite tedious to look for all what was possible (and perhaps absolutely not used) and make the new version do the
same. I think too that will shoud remove setOption().

Option that are recognized are really interesting should have named attributes. I start in a separate email a poll to
see what is used.

For JS processing I see two issue:
- an option to disable JS for a step sequence would be interessant.
- a step to disable/enable JS within a test sequence could be usefull as well. It would permit to disable js before
getting a page that contains not supported js and to reactivate it on the next page. The option for the sequence would
not be necessary if we have the step.
