I most definitely think there is room for different web tool kits.
Not necessarily a proliferation, but a few to cover different views.
As Avi suggested sharing some infrastructure would be nice where
beneficial to both tools.
But it appears from my limited understanding of both Seaside and HV that
they have different philosophies and perspectives and neither is wrong.
Somethings that are very much a part of Seaside don't fit into my view
of my current webapps. But they seem to work very well for Avi and
company. Seaside seems to be a very unique and brilliant web environment.
I currently very much want/need bookmarkable pages.
I currently very much want reasonable and readable URLs.
ie: limited (preferrably none) state information embedded in the URL.
Those are my priorities for my current project not Seasides.
If I am wrong about Seaside's ability to have bookmarkable pages by
their nature not by explicitly defined entry points, please correct my
understanding. I don't say this as a knock against Seaside. It has my
utmost respect.
URL handling is one area I liked very much about Zope.
There is much I didn't, which is why I am no longer there. :)

I look forward to seeing the new HV and the new articles.
I've been considering installing it, but didn't know what conflicts
there would be with Kom6.x.
I've just read your two articles. I look forward to others.
Pantera is good? Yes!!!
