In the other thread, folks were talking about Vaadin which would supersede this 
discussion, I believe.

For this application I think Vaadin (in particular the Grid component) is an 
ideal fit, because it is a complete UI framework, vs Bootstrap which is just a 
nice client-side CSS/JS theme.

Replacing the various obsolete implementations of tabular data display with the 
Vaadin Grid component alone would make ofbiz an order of magnitude more usable 
for most of its apps.
