I'm looking for a way to build a web app back ended to a database like
turbogears is good at but I'm looking for an easy way for some of the
fields on the web page to be updated in real-time like a google docs
document or a google wave.  Perhaps via XMPP?

For example, some things I want to do in real-time:

- display results of a query (for example how many products are left
in stock)
- show new records in an sql query (for example new products)
- text field like an embedded google doc which updates on multiple
screens at the same time (this is a "two-way" update)
- graph results of a query (like snmp, like mrtg)

I know I can create a app with static display of this stuff.  But what
I'm hoping to see is like just a flag to my field in the model or
perhaps view (or subclassing something) which causes all the
underlying stuff to keep it displayed in real time to just happen
without me having to write a lot of code to do this.  I can't be the
only one out there who would want this sort of thing.

I see that there are some libraries out there like strophe but I
haven't managed to find anyone who's bound anything up yet with
turbogears or anything similar.  I'm not even sure if XMPP is the
right way to do this.
