Personally I was aware that this architectural choice only affects the
admin interface, but I also wasn't sure whether everybody else was ;)
We did use GWT in the admin interface, and we made good experiences with
it. All I wrote previously about performance was meant to refer to the
admin interface, which is being used heavily e.g. by editors. If you
work 8h per day on a system that gives you sluggish performance or bad
usability, or when you know it could be faster, this can drive you nuts
(at least me it would).
From our experience, the decision for a CMS system often is heavily
influenced by the actual users of the admin interface, such as editors.
And that's with good reason, because it's them who eventually must work
with it for years every day.

I feel that the community ecosystem was a bit underestimated in the evaluation
where Ext/JS was considered above GWT. I would be considering the overall
architecture which supports a wider community involvement - not just from a
polished UI perspective but from a social participation perspective.
I feel strongly about the potential of OpenSocial platform
(http://www.opensocial.org) and support for other applications like - My Space,
Orkut, Google Wave etc. Since Vaadin follows an entirely different
architectural approach, I do not know how far it can collaborate with these
platforms/applications. Needless to say, that any product architecture which
encourages (and has a potential for) developing a community ecosystem would be
a first choice regardless of a rich component library or polished UI. I am not
bashing Vaadin in general, but it seems it does not have the sufficient
advantage to be among the core components of a CMS especially considering the
architectural impact/alienation.
I'm not sure if everyone in this thread realizes that the choice for a UI
framework for Magnolia 5 is (AFAIK) only a choice for the framework used to
build the new *admin* interface. I believe this will have zero impact on your
websites. Or am I misunderstanding the complaints?
