Mike, I am also flash/flex guy. Websites built with GWT can have workflow almost the same as those built with flash (especially if you are using Flash Builder od FDT). This is a great advantage for AS3 programmers. But like flash it is not crawlable by google so you have to implement it by yourself. If you are using Tomcat - HtmlUnit is good choice. If not I recommend this approach: http://www.asual.com/jquery/address/ . You should be familiar with SWFAddress so it do you no harm :)
