That's another approach.  You loose some flexibility of using widgets, for 
example, but you also get your job done.  If you don't need to guarantee that 
your project will work with browsers without JavaScript, then it is OK.  If 
you do, then you are lost... :-)

As for problems with Kid, I rarely have them and when I do, I generate the 
source file and read the generated Python code to see what Kid is 
understanding from my code (Kevin, here's another good opportunity for that 
mind-reading code... ;-)).

As for redundancy, I believe they are in separate layers.  For me it is much 
better to have custom templates and just use MochiKit to swapDOM or innerHTML 
some loadJSONDoc results then creating the whole structure in JavaScript (I 
have coded both things here to try them...).  Both are complementary 
structures to me, one providing (X)HTML and the other doing the dynamic part 
on my website.

If you stop to thing, a lot of things can be labeled "redundant" in TG, but 
they are intended as complementary instead. :-)

Use what you believe is better for you.  There are several other templating 
engines that you can use instead of Kid only, maybe they might suit you 
better. :-)
