I'll agree with Ray on this. I have an advantage of being a JavaScripter long before I came into CF (and that was some time ago), but I know a lot of CF developers who never cultivated that skill set. The CF 8 Ajax components are an excellent entry point for those without the knowledge, as well as an terrific tool for rapid application prototyping for those who do have the knowledge, or for small applications looking for a little kick. When 'slow'/'bloatedness' become a barrier, then it's time to either learn the underlying technology to get beyond it, or to hire someone to do it for you.
