In M2, things have been cleaned up a bit. The framework has been moved out of bikeshed into "user" folder, thus promoted into gwt.jar and out of bikeshed.jar file (Bikeshed contains only the example apps now). If you're using Roo, you have to fix the POM manually or wait for Roo M2 to be released (should happen this week).
I agree that Expenses contains a lot of hard-coded stuff. I believe they wanted to show something impressive at Google I/O, focusing on the core design separations (Activities, Places, RequestFactory, Records), knowing that the API definition was not 100% clean nor clear. Just as an example, the left-side tree View is somewhat crumpled, as it does not separate RequestFactory queries (which should take place in an Activity) from the View. Also, Expanses Details views are fired via direct calls instead of Places events, and so on. But I am confident that the example will improve alongside with the framework. Personally, I'm diving into what's available today. It's better than nothing and gives me a good heads up on the changes.
