I guess that Simon was thinking of including an emscripten-ed cpython to
run the user's code in the notebook. I think it's quite plausible, if quite
a bit of work, to do that, and it would be a really fascinating tool for
certain situations, like teaching basic programming. Turning it into a
totally static webpage would probably require some more work, to save
notebooks in local storage instead of on the server.
