Excellent! Sounds exactly like what I had in mind. I'll definately want to 
keep an eye on this. Any webpage or svn or anything yet?

Couple questions:

Have you given any thought to security? The stuff about local file/etc 
access sounds great, but it also makes me think a little of Adobe's FLEX 
(but with a much more professional appearance and sensible language) which 
is notorious for, first, opening the door for no-install cross-platform 
malware and then not caring one whit about the fact that they've done so 
(sort of like how they don't care about the evils of flash super-cookies, 
but I digress...).

How do you have the client-side working from the perspective of a new user? 
Ie, Do they still need to install each app (or at least each app's client) 
individually, or is it just a one-time install of the DWS library? If the 
latter, how do they find/launch a remote program? I ask because one of the 
things that web-app fans like about web-apps is that they're "no-install", 
at least beyond the installation of the platform (ie, browser) itself. But 
I've always felt there's no technical reason why it shouldn't be possible to 
have a link to, for instance, 
"dws://www.somedomain.com/apps/someGUIApp?cmdlineparams" and have that 
launch the client's remote-GUI toolkit on that "someGUIApp".
