As a long-term idea, I really like it. It is indeed a far more elegant model
for small, highly local code.

I'm not quite sure what you meant by querying spelly/rosie. Can you describe
in more detail?

Also, Caja addresses many fundamental problems with running untrusted code
in a web application. I'd be interested to hear why you think it's a poor
model.
