This is getting really cool. One suggestion: the example on the home
page needs a libgmail in front of the GmailAccount constructor
I couldn't work out how to get the gmail.js required to update the
constants.py. Maybe being able to give username and password to
mkconstants to let it fetch the javascript would be a good idea?
