I'm also going down this path, and have decided on python + wxWidgets + 
boa as the RAD tool.  From the tutorial, it seems pretty easy to use, 
except for some minor annoyances on both windows and linux platforms.

Under windows, for some inexplicable reason the "dialogs" tab is not 
present, while under linux, I can't seem to drag components around the 
frame after placement.
