I somewhat like the idea of "qooxdoo the system", but I think the scope
that you are sketching is far too wide. I think it might make a nice
contrib to have your twisted/nevow layers in a somewhat generic way. But
that would really be for *specialists* that exactly want that platform
and can master it.

On the other side, a real *lightweight* approach to an HTTP backend
might be interesting for starters. This would in the first step
certainly be based on 'python -m CGIHTTPServer' (a web server
implementation that comes with vanilla Python), and maybe in the second
step on node.js/v8. In the first step it would encompass a RpcPython
implementation and maybe a few sample applications that use it. But it
would not have (real) database support, no bells and whistles, just
enough to get a first prototype going with true server round trips. And
that would also be the message, that it is for exploration and
prototyping, not for production. As for production, there are so many
choices of web servers and server application frameworks that I don't
see a single one of them being "qooxdoo the system". But a good
contribution for each of them on how to integrate qooxdoo, yes, that
would be great.
