I should clarify...

Yes, I certainly don't want to dubplicate code. There are many modules (here "module" means functional subsystem from the user's perspective). E.g. imagine 6 different people see the tickets and do different things with them. They each get a slightly different view and focus on different parts of the ticket data. 3 modules are done in Perl. We would want to do modules 4-6 in Java or .NET and then go back and one at a time convert modules 1, 2, and 3 to the same technology.

It sounds like this is doable as long as all state is maintained in the database, right? We do maintain session state while fields are being modified, but as long as no two people access the same ticket at the same time it should be ok; even then it's just the usual data concurrency/overwriting issues, and won't cause any type of server state inconsistency (as opposed to potential data inconsistency).
