A comment about running user-submitted scripts on the server: this is extremely difficult to do properly. Python had a module for running untrusted code in a sandbox, but it was abandoned since it was essentially unsafe. For pydap, user-generated scripts would have to be implemented by running a jailed environment where the script would be executed.
