SJ and I were actually chatting about this earlier tonight (yesterday?).
Gears is a nice idea, but really doesn't fit with the model that Sugar
is going for. For example, you wouldn't be able to get to the store or
journal from within JS. Making something similar but targeted more
towads the various OLPC-specific technologies is one option, but
probably would be very non-trivial to do. Chances are if you need
persistence, you should really start thinking about making a real, local
activity.
