For a similar need I went with a webapp using Flask and a minimal 
amount of js (that I don't know very well and therefore don't like very 
much :-) but the alternative that I considered was Dabo [1], I haven't 
checked how the client-server connection actually works with dabo tho' 
but I'm mentioning in case you're inclined to do so.

For the client part and different from the "usual" js framework I had a 
brief experience with Cappuccino [2], if you happen to know Cocoa it's 
pretty straightforward to use.
