Just sharing a thought...

HTML 5 has the <canvas> element that is used to draw graphics, on the fly,
on a web page.  This is essentially what, at the low level, Windows, X11,
Flash, etc. build all their GUI's on.  Doing it this way has unlimited
power and flexibility, would be entirely consistent across browsers, you
would bypass all the inconsistent HTML junk, and you would no longer be
subject to the HTML standards process and browser support of same.

One system doing this is:  http://zebkit.org

The problem with Zebra is that you are still stuck doing ugly, ugly coding
in JavaScript with a pseudo JSP / ASP methodology.  I'd love to see GWT
take advantage of this.  GWT has the best solution I've seen.  It just
might be interesting to see it ride on top of a <canvas> instead of trying
to force unnatural acts on HTML.

Just sharing some thoughts.
