That's a very interesting situation. Actually, this is a decision between 
"full-ajax site" and "js-enhanced site", and for that question it doesn't 
even really matter which JS framework is used.

Server-side templating has always been a somewhat crazy idea (a hack, if 
you want - but then again, AJAX is a hack, too). It's surprising, that GWT 
can handle even this scenario well, and although it can't show its full set 
of advantages then, it's still a great choice.

It's possible with GWT to eliminate server-side templating, if you want, 
because GWT makes it so easy to move the UI logic to the client. There are 
simply things that should live on the server side and things that should 
live on the client side. With traditional web development techniques, this 
decision was biased - now you can make a balanced decision.
