Description of problem:
webadmin-0.js:19919 Tue Jan 23 07:46:13 GMT+100 2018 com.gwtplatform.mvp.client.presenter.slots.LegacySlotConvertor
SEVERE: Warning: You're using an untyped slot!
Untyped slots are dangerous! Please upgrade your slots using
the Arcbee's easy upgrade tool at
https://arcbees.github.io/gwtp-slot-upgrader
eGe @ webadmin-0.js:19919


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ovirt-engine-webadmin-portal-4.2.1.1-1.el7.centos.noarch

I was re-activating an host from maintenance after booting up my home lab.
The host disappeared from the list (I'll open a separate bug for this) so I checked the console of the browser and seen above message.

Ignore this, looks like a filter was on showing only hosts in maintenance and it disappeared because once activated it was obviously not in maintenance anymore.

just to note the "dangerous" here does not refer to security vulnerability.

Anyway, it is an item we wanted to do after upgrading to GWT 2.8 - but we did not have a BZ to track it. So, will keep this BZ for tracking this refactoring.

I think untyped slots allow XSS, but don't quote me
Comment 4 Alexander Wels 2018-02-05 15:07:22 UTC 
It doesn't allow security vulnerabilities, it allows untyped slots with allow for easier bugs in that area. All our slots are currently untyped.
Comment 5 Lucie Leistnerova 2018-10-01 09:27:42 UTC 
Error SEVERE: Warning: You're using an untyped slot!
still visible in FF console log.

tested in ovirt-engine-webadmin-portal-4.3.0-0.0.master.20180928133328.git50c4de4.el7.noarch
Comment 7 Greg Sheremeta 2018-12-10 01:21:02 UTC 
Unfortunately we do not have capacity to work on this. It's a cosmetic issue in the browser console.
