Well, that's one of the selling points of any full stack framework in any language (and, as you can probably guess, I don't buy it :) My experience is that full stack frameworks get you quickly to a part-way solution but the closer you get to your full solution, you harder you have to work against the framework to make progress. A discussion about frameworks came up on one of the XP lists a while back and the feeling was that micro-frameworks are much better - more agile - than full-stack frameworks, and that's something I agree with.
