Personally, I believe that only people that are very computer savy do this.
However, another reason to avoid JavaScript in validation is if your application can have an interface other than the web. If the validation in on the server then the interface could be anything. For example, WAP and standard GUI clients don't use JavaScript. On the otherhand, if you say well it's only a web application then you have to deal with how JavaScript is implemented in each browser. The differences between IE and Netscape are real and it's best to avoid this by doing server side validation. At least that's my view on the subject.
