Muhannad, There's a problem with your assumptions. When a user clicks on your "about" menu link, she's not going to get a Panel, she's going to get a whole new page from http://domain/about/index.html. That page can be a GWT host file if you like, but this is regular HTML pages, not a rich GWT client showing and hiding content based on menu navigation. I think you'd better get your head around that first, and then tackle the RPC URL binding question next, if it's even an issue at all.
