When we discussed about web frontend, just look how Google do their staff
with
Python (for inspiration):

Yes, nice !

I can see REST (http://www.infoq.com/articles/rest-introduction) and MVC
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model-view-controller) there.

Both very useful for a web based YaST architecture. Together with a
set of dialog templates to ensure UI consistency (and offload
developers from dialog details).


But using SQL statements (see the video) is ugly. Lets see when Google
adds the active record pattern
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_record_pattern) ;-)

Active record is probably a good pattern to access backend information
(aka 'SCR'). Not sure yet.
