Pyjamas could probably do this nicely.

It's a python -> javascript translator, along with a set of widgets that
allow you to write AJAX web interfaces and desktop applications - from the
same codebase, just a different runtime.  The feel of such coding is
purportedly very much like writing a desktop application.

Only thing is, the tests don't currently work that well in Google Chrome.
But for Firefox and IE, it's already supposed to be pretty good.
