Thanks for the info.  If I understood you correctly, NeXT development
was easy because it had a lot of *dynamism* & *automated* lots of
things.  
(When you said ObjC was a dynamic OOPL I assume that meant dynamic
typing like Python.)

If that is the case then I'd guess Python, Libglade & PyGTK give many
(most?) of the benefits of NeXT environment.

P.S. Try Django.  It looks to be Python's answer to Rails.
