Yes, something like that is relatively close to what I am thinking.
But, without autocomplete and docstring/code access I would need to
run to the web/bookstore to figure out how to do anything.  That is
one thing about a notebook's cell that I would really love to
preserve, tab-completion and the ? for docstring and ?? for code.  Add
the jMOL and jsMath typesetting... these are things about the notebook
that I absolutely love and would really struggle to replicate.  I am
getting close to the effect I want by just gerrymandering the .css.  I
can {display: none} most of the page and get just a worksheet with an
iframe (I know, ugh, iframes..).  However, I think that if someone
wanted to be malicious they could firebug the html and manually
navigate and have access to the notebook (I don't want people to need
to createUser/login or anything like that so I have basically crippled
all of the security).  It would certainly be better if the extra html
was not served.

Why would someone want to hack a little guy with a little server
trying to make some mathEd software?

Thanks for the time and acknowledgment; that means a lot to me.  I
still have a lot of learning to plow through but I hope to devote time
and resources to the sage project where I can in the future.
