Nit: Actually, if you take a peek, G+ and Gmail and Docs are based on Google's Closure Libraries and the Closure (javascript) Compiler. Lots of google systems use GWT, to be sure, but lots use native javascript.
Though GWT also uses the Closure Compiler if I recall correctly, so that can get a bit confusing. Christian.
