I connect to the head node of the cluster I'm developing using SSH with
X forwarding, and the GUI shows up on my 2880x1200 monitor pair just fine.

Are you unable to use SSH and/or X between your preferred work location
and your cluster, and are therefore looking for an alternative access
method?

Or do you see some possible benefits to using a web browser for display
instead of the Qt and/or Tk toolkits?

I'm not yet far enough into OSCAR to comment one way or the other on the
quality of the existing GUI's _use_ of Qt/Tk (looks fine so far), but
I do know enough about the Qt and Tk toolkits to hold the opinion that
their _capabilities_ are well in excess of those of a generic web browser.

Of course, I could be missing something; hence my questions.
