When I'm making a throwaway interface like this, I write the GET handler to return a super-minimal page with an unstyled form having method=POST and the couple of inputs required. The POST handler actions the request and redirects to itself to GET the form again - browsers are so forgiving of incomplete/incorrect markup and the base browser style-sheet screams "this is a prototype, don't judge it!" to anybody you show it to.

To be clear I'm just talking about the web interface, not implying the whole project is throwaway - on the contrary it looks like a lot of work (and a lot of fun :) ) kudos!

that's a great idea and one I'm stealing for the future! thanks.
