Some types of things that people commonly do, such as providing treeview navigation tools, are inefficent when a roundtrip is required for each action. And then - unless there's something I don't know, likely since I'm not really a website designer - the back button takes you back through navigations which is really undesirable. Are you aware of techniques to detect when a client has scripting enable and adapt in the cases where it is not? Take the treeview scenario as a sample problem.
