Looks good. Moving away from design and more into front-end functionality. Is there any talks about cleaning up the javascript behind the UI? I recall it being messy and hard to follow from what I recall of looking at it. The idea single page app with no URL defining a view and a broken browser back button is quite annoying. I think so implementation of AngularJS like the way Shiva did it for his GSoC project would be good.
