Just to be sure that I got you right: I'd write the GUI things in Java and
hook the Python stuff into the GUI by implementing listeners directly or by
implementing interfaces used by the listeners in Python (sorry, yet I'm not
very experienced in Java). For me this sounds like what I want to have: The
GUI in a compiled lang, the gist in Python. If so, I'll give it a try.
