David,
The way I have designed it is - GWT widgets make a RPC call to a
RemoteService which in turn call an OFBiz service and so on. Its nice to
leverage benefits of both GWT and OFBiz. I will let you know how everything
goes. I have worked a lot on JavaScript and using GWT means using all the
JavaScript equivalent in Java. As I havent gone so deep in that yet, I am
not in a position to tell how good of a job Google has done. But of course
Google being Google I can always bet on them anytime.

I have been using GWT for a project for a client, and am very pleased with
the results (they are not publically visible I am afraid).
The project involved an existing XML based set of servlets, which used to
have a JSP front end. This I replaced with a GWT one, and managed to
improve the functionality and ease of use.
As OfBiz has (as I understand it) a native XML format I had looked at (but
not
got anywhere with) using that directly. Ofbiz is the bit of this I know
least
about. But I have an interest in being able to use OfBiz (and opentaps) for
other clients as well.
I feel comfortable doing everything in Java (although Javascript is a great
language it is not easy to validate before you run it, GWT solves that
problem for me).
