Ben, Sounds very cool. Do you have a sample that you could send me ?
I understand that Qooxdoo is very swing like. I personally like Javascript and have no problem working with it. In my experience, I find most Java developers kinda dislike (putting in mildly :-)) it with all the usual reasons (dynamic, lossly typed etc etc). What I was thinking of is almost like a XUL way of representing the objects but as JSP tags. I think this will help Qooxdoo to be more accepted by the Java community. I also see how JSON-RPC would be cool as a binding layer. Do you think it needs a lot of work for people who may already have theor backend written in Spring or whatever. I am really looking at using Spring not as an MVC layer but more like an event handler. Essentially letting GUI certain events come to the server side where the developer can write Java code in an "event" handler that manupilates the Qooxdoo DOM objects via Java API. It is kinda more like an X-Windows model where the browser layer is a very thin layer, yet very very rich.
