I have been working on this: https://github.com/mdipierro/editablebody

Here is how it works:

1)  Visit a web page that you like with the browser then save it locally 
(including static files)
2) Edit the file and in the header include
< script 
src="https://raw.github.com/mdipierro/editablebody/master/editablebody.js";></script>
3) Open the local file with your browser file:whatever.html (you should see 
the original file)
4) Append this to the URL ?editablebody=true&save_url=save&read_url=read

It brings the wordpress way of editing pages to the extreme. It allows you 
to edit the entire page in place. Any page. There are buttons to insert 
links, images, bold, italic, ul, ol, toggle between wysiwyg and html, save, 
and redirect to a readonly version of the same page.
Should work with all browsers.

I think we could build a good CMS by combining 4 pieces:
- this js library
- db.define_table('page',....) to store pages
- db.define_table('document',...) to store document
- a new plugin that allows tagging and setting permissions on any 
page/document (I have already built this piece but I need to make it more 
general, will release it soon).

I could use some feedback.
