Liked your idea and will follow your developments on GitHub with an eye towards how you're going to integrate a CoreData client-side library. Besides the front-end issues you highlight, a key challenge will be synchronization: unless you don't plan to allow your users to work offline? I agree with your hope that Rails could somehow be extended to cover this mobile use case, wish I had the chops to create a Devise+MobileAPI generator with a iOS native MongoDB-sychro engine. (Can Rails generators synthesize ObjectiveC source code?) By the way, every time I think about doing something about this I keep an eye on the folks at Parse.com: seems like every week they're solving more and more of the backend part of this problem. And they're working on front-end libraries as well...
