Hmm, one thing that gets some immediate attention in Ruby On Rails is the automatic CRUD-interface, even though in most "real" apps you don't use that stuff, you build your own custom forms. But I wonder whether combining that with an AppWiki mentality might just be enough? (need to play with a Python Web Framework for this...)

• hmm, those interfaces are tied to SQL Data Base engines, whereas for a flexible/lite app you probably want some other kind of Data Store. Though perhaps you could look at how they specify schema, and keep that, but change the underlying interface code (in other words, you're back to building it all yourself).
