Heh sorry I know I know ... I have wanted to explore this ... but alas, so
many other caves to explore ... in due time.

No worries, the pythonwebkit stuff works great, but not sans a bit of a
pain; judging by my last round of updates to the Archlinux package, it may
fall out of working, for me at least.  There were some tough bugs that took
days to track, and I ended up pulling patches from upstream.

... would just be nice to have the facilities already available to (and
enabled in) most distros. But hey, I'm not complaining! Don't think that
for a second :-) Even though pyjd is normally deemed "for development of
webapps", I actually think it's way cooler -- with much greater potential
-- than the translator variant, *by far* ... hence my continued allure
toward a long-lasting solution; preferably one not solely maintained by
you, or anyone else, because that's a nontrivial task even for the rock
stars among us.
