Actually, I'm doing this for my SUPER SECRET startup at the moment. Originally the front-end would just send the back-end the whole HTML of a user's page when they executed the browser plugin, and the back-end would intercept it and knock it up in Perl.
Wasn't sure how well that was going to scale, and was worried people would get weird about sending the entire contents of the page they're on - I have a 90% working solution now where it's all done in-browser, with a bunch of classes I've been working on with a node.js set of testing tools
