Wow...that just gave me all sorts of fun (possibly wrong) ideas. :) That framework looks cool. Another idea you gave me was sending Qt .ui files over the wire and loading them at run time, along with the Python code to set up the signals and slots. There is also this: http://pyjamas.pyworks.org/ Write Python code, compile to Javascript...that looks pretty cool too.
