We get to see all kinds of impressive stuff here at HN. I was skeptical about what this was for the reasons you pointed out. An SSH client in javascript and HTML5... "HTML5 SSH Client" is a misleading title because is not accurate. The heavy lifting resources to python and system calls.

Gate One just comes with a bundled SSH plugin that makes using it for SSH really convenient. You can actually use Gate One to run any terminal application you desire. For example, if you run "sudo ./gateone.py --command=/bin/login" Gate One will instantly become the equivalent of logging into the host's console. It can be a great (secure) back door into a server in case SSH or PAM auth ever breaks. -- Dan McDougall - Author of Gate One
