Can you provide a brief sketch of how, along with links?  I can tie this
together for Salvus (a new Sage notebook style project, from scratch, that
I've been working on for the last 6 months) -- I'm spending quite a bit of
time every day working on Salvus, and a lot of what I'm doing is a lot more
work than what you're asking for above.  By designing this in from the
start, it'll be easier than adding it later.
