Tom: I have done some experimentation with Keynote, the latest version. It does just about everything I need, but the slide "effects" need a high frame rate to play nicely in QuickTime, so that would rule out anything but a very small web demo, unless I am missing something important. Or, alternately, you could just eliminate the effects altogether. I'm still baffled by the way it handles its QuickTime export. Would you recommend bringing captured video into Keynote uncompressed and using Keynote to compress it, or the reverse? I'm going for the highest quality, largest size that would be practical for the web.
