Hiya,
 
This does indeed sound like a very powerful tool.  Can I urge anyone who might be 
interested in pursuing this to take a look at XUL (part of the Mozilla project.)  XUL 
would make complex data display infinately easier (built in tree views, RDF driven 
templting - every rich widget you could imagine.)  I know it's not a technology used 
within the cocoon core, but it would make a lot of the development a lot less painful. 
 The sort of information you're going to render needs (IMHO) a fairly rich GUI 
interface - something which becomes unmanageble very quickly with HTML / Javascript.  
XUL provides a toolkit to make such things really easy to develop.
 
The project I've been heading for the last few months makes extensive use of RDF 
driven XUL (all coming out of cocoon of course ;)  I'd be happy to evangilise directly 
if anyone is interested in learning more about XUL + cocoon :)
