Yes, you definitely can. What I couldn't figure out was a *nice* way of 
arranging everything while still using the Bootstrap-provided jQuery plugin. It 
all became pleasant to use again when I reimplemented the behaviour in plain 
GWT.

So far we've avoided getting into the "here's a set of widgets" game because 
there are so many widgets for GWT already. I just brought this up because you 
were suggesting to make some Bootstrap-specific widgets (the 
row/column/responsive table ones) and I thought the Bootstrap jQuery widgets 
were a closely related idea. :)
