Maybe I'm missing something but I don't see why should django internals be changed. I'm not saying it's easy, but he would have to implement (or find a module [0] that does) the browser's capabilities for cookie management [1] or secure connections [2] (like certificate verification.) I would treat it like an AJAX application in the sense that he only needs to access the data, not the markup. Gustavo, if you achieve this please tell us about your experience. I've thought about doing this before but never found a really good reason to get into it. You can find useful information on the net [3]. Good luck.
