Some of them are used in the framework others may be required in application code:
- HtmlEmbed: Any text displayed there is outside of the label. This will effect e.g. a translated API viewer - TextField/TextArea - Text inside of a table. Changing the language of text inside of a table is currently not supported and needs special handling in user code The functionality of these widgets cannot be mapped to a label widget. The other place where locale changes must be observed are all widgets dealing with date, number, currency, ... formatting and parsing. The date chooser is one example for this. > That's to me looks like a nightmare of complexity issues, weird bugs, etc. > All complex ui widgets should consist only of the core ui widgets. > > Am i mistaken?

I expect the runtime performance in non IE browsers to be roughly the same but we safe a huge amount of objects. This directly impacts the performance of IE6, which is very sensitive to the number of allocated objects, and helps to reduce the overall memory consumption of the application.
