Yes, it is good. But all the state is on the server, so it is not much help
for an in-browser web app. A thin client model rather than a fat client
that has a very responsive UI and also works well with interrupted
connectivity as is often the case with mobile. So not really my use case.

Exactly. It would be cool if we could unite a few competent people with
self-interest to help the project forward. I have this self-interest, but
not the skills (or time to acquire them) to do it alone. Have tried ;)
