This could be a good complementary way to tell the i.e. content provider you don't want to be tracked so it'd be no need to issue warnings.

Otherwise this measure is bland as it'd totally rely on the way the legislation is implemented or in the trackers' good faith.

About web frameworks others have mentioned AllegroServe, which looks quite good with the logic and view separation in templates and actions, similar to Django. Other people prefer to code the HTML inline with cl-who i.e.

If you're developing an application in the web you may find worth a continuation based framework like weblocks or UCW. Cliki contains a fair amount of libraries categorized. Here you have the database libraries: http://www.cliki.net/database
