You already matched my interests.
Client side (interactive) rendering, with json data format.
For low zoom levels with reduced data (only coastline, borders, rivers, motorways) - nearly the data you see in current map tiles.
For higher zoom levels you may divide the data into different data sets like train lines, motorways/streets, coastline/rivers, buildings, public transport, others.

Thanks,
Stefan.
