Aaron,

Can ExtGWT and/or pivot call web services?  If so, just expose your
RPG as web services and let the presentation layer talk to your RPG
programs on the server.  Most of these technologies seem to be able to
(at least to let you do mashups).  Let RPG do what it's good at, and
let the UI layer of your choosing do what it's good at.
