No matter what you choose, it will suck. The problem is that there's
not a single solution which fits all different website
development styles. Some see a website as a set of loosely coupled pages,
others see it as a windowsforms project with a different
style of how you define your forms.
Add to that that the application by itself isn't runnable, you need
a HOST to run it in (webserver), with a viewer app to
make it move (browser).

Not necessarily. Partial classes have the advantage that you can use
designers which generate parts of your classes and you
have a safe way of adding your own code to the class in a convenient way.

I found the 2003 model also very bad, especially the necessity for
loading the project via the webserver. As if I want to
develop my software through a webserver. that's why I always choose the
library form of doing websites with asp.net. It loads very
fast and works as expected. I haven't done any porting of a lib based
website to vs.net 2005, but I don't expect much problems.
