I know I'm a Luddite, but what I'd really love to see to go with this is an easy way for the application, the browser, and the user to all agree that this particular application can read and write arbitrary files in a particular local directory. A Python program you don't have to install, that executes really fast on one of the newer JavaScript JIT engines, with its own purely local data in files in a simple text format in a directory specified by the user, instead of being all tangled up in a database with data from a lot of different applications and buried deep in some multi-gigabyte browser cache directory -- now that would be a platform worth targeting. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
