Yes on both accounts. Smalltalk was invented in order to support development 
work on the first GUI back in the '70s at Xerox PARC, so it has always been 
coupled to GUI's. All Smalltalk vendors nowadays give you various ways to work 
with browsers, ranging from custom plugins that run full-fledged Smalltalk 
GUI's to JSP/Servlet-style programming.

But we should probably take my Smalltalk advocacy off-list, lest a language 
flamewar arises :-)

There's a German company doing something like that in Java, IIRC.
