have a stand-alone app working from your web browser, don't you need an
embedded web server to utilize the file system?  Is a system like Django
for an app overkill?  Or is its embedded development server underkill for a
single-user browser-based application?

JavaScript has this:

http://appjs.org/

It's a node.js server app serving a folder of plain old HTML files to a
chrome embedded browser.

You can code in a node.js server using anything you like, serve requests
for your client app (or use the server code directly, you can just put the
functions you would like to share with the client in the window object),
etc.

I'm using it for a peer to peer configurable application. To do that I
serve up the web application for me and my peers (by using a regular server
instead of the fake server it comes with), and the browser is just a client
which can connect wherever I want it to.

Someone should fork this and make it work in python.
