Web-based GUI technology for OpenMoko

Here's a little look-and-feel example that could be done with an
opensource AJAX framework [javascript required]:

This may allow easier separation between apps and GUIs. Of course, as
usual we have no idea how well such an app would perform (little &
gratuitous prediction: very bad), benchmarking is needed but ... who
knows ?

This is going along with the ongoings gdk webkit port and gsmd
XmlHttpRequest interface (was topic: embedded webserver).

What do you think ? Is it REALLY unrealistic ? Could anybody try the
url on it's Nokia N770 (lots of happy owners here, right?) and rough
feedback the responsiveness ?

Cheers

Florent
