Iowa is pretty strongly targetted at web applications.  My personal
version of it is 1/2 way to having some major enhancements to make it much
easier to use Iowa for singleton pages with dynamic content.  ex. a page
or set of pages that display some data from a database, but that need to
be referenced by some simple, repeatable URL.  It doesn't currently
readily lend itself to such uses.
