GnuCash has the notion of working on "one single opened file". This is inherently difficult to implement with a browser-based interface. It is surely not impossible. But *I* have no experience in such sort of applications, so for *me* this would be very hard. Writing a GUI in Qt/C++ OTOH is rather easy for me. That's why *I* started this experiment, and I wanted to see the benefit that comes out for the user.
