I would not recommend gluino at this time (even if I wrote it) because it 
was an experiment it is not clear where it is going. If you want Flask for 
DAL look into https://github.com/gi0baro/weppy

Anyway, web2py, Flask and weppy are all good choices. Web2py offers you the 
web IDE, the builtin authentication, and more automated form logic.
