For me it's the way you built qooxdoo. It's unbelievable how far from the DOM we are, but hey, if we want to access the dom we still can, easily. All those mechanisms to deal with theming and decorations, focus, queues, binding, virtual, keyboard support, selection managers, tests are impressive and well thought.
When you (qooxdoo team) face a problem you don't simply create some workaround to deal with that. You create a thoughtful solution.
