The difference between frameworks like Dojo, qooxdoo, extJS on one hand, and jQUI on the other is that the former are complete GUI toolkits, whereas jQUI is a mere collection widgets. It's a difference between plastic surgery and makeup.
Some of the stuff jQUI is missing: * coross-browser form elements (as in looks the same and works the same across browsers) * panels and layout modules * menu bars and context menus * tree view * i18 and l10 * (your favourite feature here) What is worse is that jQUI is not even trying to get there. And before someone points out a 3rd party plugin that does all of above, my experience is that such features are better when they are supported by the main developers. Supported packages tend to be of higher quality and bugs get squatted faster. So unless jQUI becomes a GUI toolkit, I don't think jQuery will be a good choice for rapid development of fat-clients.
