Thanks for your reply Bauwe, and of course, FOSS is all about choices,
scratch your own itch. I would just hate to see such a tool used as a
workaround for long-term incompatibility issues.
Back in the Prism days, I created several "standalone apps" as far as the
users were concerned, and using portable FF they're still in use today
through three major platform upgrades, browser switches etc.
Apparently Chrome now offers something similar, haven't had the need to
investigate yet. . .

Are there any examples/documentation/posts that would enable a
non-programming-but-technical person to figure out how to do the same?
Or did you just base your implementation on this?

And I'm not familiar with couchdb, what does that offer over say SQLite? Of
course I'll google as well, just if you have a particularly compelling
feature in mind. IMO, too bad GoogleGears
