I just don't get this trend with "burying" widgets and UiBinder. Even with Errai I don't see any meaningful replacement for composite UI, i.e. design simple blocks as <FlowPanel>...</FlowPanel> and then reuse them with <MyBlock1>...</MyBlock1>. Though with Polymer it looks like it's possible by defining web component for each logical block.
