Cool. Then another question about the future of the new layout system. Is the current thinking that eventually it *will* replace all of the older panels? I mean, is there buy-in at Google that that is a desired track for this project. Or will the new layout system remain parallel to the original? Also, is it possible to re-write StackPanel etc. to be compatible with the new system so that people have a migration? I don't personally care about migration, because I'm starting nearly from scratch, but I don't want to adopt a "side-car" layout system that doesn't have a track into the mainline of GWT.
Thanks for your answers and your efforts. If there is anything I can do to help, let me know, I will be glad to pitch in a hand with some layouts or UIBinder parsers etc. if you are willing to give direction.
