Well, we've already got a solution for that- Widget Templates. There's some info on the Wiki if you're interested, but basically it's just a way to store GUI layouts in an efficient compiled format that can be defined in XML. So far pgserver can load widget templates, but there's no compiler yet. Eventually we hopw to have a GUI editor for widget templates.
