The core could also be written in Python, which is suitable for large
projects. Zope for a web interface to the program makes sense.

I'm all for the model-controller-view concept from smalltalk where the
model is the data, the controller is the glue and the view is the
UI. That way, you can have two UIs (Gtk+ and web) talking to the same
model. The controller class abstracts the process.

The methodology works somewhat less well in C++ but I've seen it done.
