That would be appropriate if the user just needs to play around with the
data because they're looking for something interesting, or need a one-time
calculation.
If the user ("semi-administrator") needs to change how the website does a
calculation that other users will see, a DSL would seem to be more
appropriate. Or maybe one of those visual programming things where you use
"virtual Lego(tm) pieces" which are compute blocks that you connect up (I
don't know of any of those that would fit in as an IDE the way the web2py
IDE fits the admin app). Yet Another Option would be a server-side sandbox
that could flag unsafe actions, but I have no information on such a beast.
