I know it's lame to comment on somebody else work when one has no scoop,
so accept my appos beforehand,
...but, now that you are at it,

Did you consider using XUL?

A kick-butt architecture for this can be something like a XUL app on  
the client,
and Rails at the backend,

I like from the hud how they manage the "units" for each extension,
very easy to replicate in XUL, and very easy for rails to respond to  
them

UI send asynchronous to Rails
and refreshes each "extension unit"
