Only a tiny bit. We ended up going with Pylons:

There is also TurboGears:

And many others. The world is not wanting for options in Python web 
frameworks.

However, these are all more "traditional" web frameworks. I think they 
can use some AJAX, but I pointed the OP to the ones above because they 
seem to be using a very different paradigm: using JavaScript to 
essentially write a traditional GUI app in a browser. IIUC, they only 
really use the server as a supplier of data, etc. More like a 
traditional "custom client". It looks to me like an easier way to make 
something that behaves much like a desktop app.
