As far as GUI's are concerned, why not use Haskell or Clean CGI on the
backend and a DHTML browser on the front end. The 4.0 browsers have
gotten to the point where there is not a lot of penalty in using them
over using the native GUIs (and they run on Mac/Win/Unix).
With ActiveHaskell, you can even do browser scripting in a functional
programming language (but I think only on Windows right now).
