I've given RStudio as an example because is not platform dependent, you can connect to the server from any web browser (tablet/phone, android/windows/ios). Is not the most elegant solutions but in my opinion is a simple enough (???) one (for the developers) to take into consideration, also the code for RStudio is available under GPL and I was wondering if it's not possible to use some of it in gretl.

This would be a big leap forward for gretl in terms of user friendliness and capabilities.

No, but one could imagine an Android client app that lets you connect to a 
remote server. The app sends hansl command to the server and receives the 
output, formatting it suitably. For some users, this would be 
indistinguishable from having a local installation of gretl.
