Well, there are some areas where they are nice; Rob has showed me the
"My Fidelity" site which is a 3-column layout and it's nice. They put
tiny things like recent quotes for a few stocks, little search
widgets, news headlines, etc. I'm not really sure, honestly.

Not much. Almost all the HTML infrastructure is there, I just need to
get a little scheme-side stuff together, an editor dialog for a
1-column view, and a few changes to reports to name/save/restore them.
I think I might be able to have something working in the next week or
so if I get lucky.
