First, I looked at Taconite a long time ago, so thing might have changed a
bit.

The issue I was talking about was if you're trying to update a table w/let's
say 50 records. At the time, Taconite had no way of just sending back some
JSON data to update the table. You would have needed to send across all the
HTML.

Obviously, when you're dealing w/large tabular data sets, using a
lightweight data exchange format cuts down on the bandwidth considerably.

deal w/JSON data now.
