And here's another aspect I'd like to add: To me UOJS not also means 
graceful degradation plus separation of JS and HTML, it also means to 
not add elements to your HTML that have solely the purpose of satisfying 
  some scripting needs, like extra ids, elements and so on (hey Jake, 
you should like that :-) ).

I think jQuery makes UOJS possible like no other library. Prototype with 
Rails for example gives you the hell of obtrusive JavaScript (they don't 
care because of all the helpers you still don't have the maintenance 
nightmare). So if you're using Prototype elsewhere you might tend to 
stick to these habits...

Rey, I think this is an important point to emphasize if not happened yet.
