If there were a perl module that could let perl CGI scripts interact with a native Mac OS X window, that displayed web formated content like Safari (or perhaps a hacked FireFox), but also gave you access to the "Main Menu", then any web programmer could port their work to a native Mac OS X (like) application with little effort.
