I second Gines recommendation.  with Pyjamas you really don't have to write
any javascript and HTML.  The compiler works great as long as you are
compiling pure Python.  There are no compatibility issues with browsers
since the compiler obscures that away producing multiple interface pages
from your Python code.  CSS can be maintained seperately.

Chrome is not great for testing with pylons because of the aformentioned
security feature (though it can be disabled) so Firefox w/firebug is
probably the best for testing.

This example in my opinion illustrates just how powerful Pyjamas can be, it
also illustrates my favorite development method thus far (having widgets
talk to a fake RPC backend while making the interface).

Did I mention that you could easily run any RIA you create as a standalone
desktop application?

Essentially the DOM becomes the basis for GUI creation.  it sort of reminds
me of tkinter.  pyjamas would make a great basis for a client web API.  I'm
sure anyone could also appreciate the language and reusability features
provided by Python over Javascript and that's really where it makes all the
difference.

Ajax is also stupid easy with Pyjamas.  If you couldn't tell, it's my
favorite new toy.
