Yes, i see it the same way. The thing which works by far best it
opening up a website in a browser!
Just a small remark, concerning the end result: A typical program
stores files locally, sage not. So despite an easy import+export
(which is already there), a utility to store notebooks locally and
work with them online (without registering, only temporary sessions)
could fill this gap. Such a tool is google-gears (
http://code.google.com/apis/gears/
) which is capable of storing webbased data locally. I'm not sure if
it does everything it would need, but it is still under heavy
development and very promising for such a task...
And well, maybe there is someday a self-running one-click sealed VM-
ware with compressed virtual disk in a MSI package which starts a
dummy service after booting that fires up sage when accessed via a
local browser link saved in start>apps>sage.
