I'm confused.. non-developers writing JS and CSS? This scares the
bejesus outta me.

There's so many movements urging people to learn to code right now, I don't see 
how this is surprising anymore. Yes, physicians and economists can write 
JavaScript too, and if their JS isn't the ultimate prettiest code, but if it 
works for their purposes, then so what? That's a net gain.

And it's not very easy to cause a major security bug when writing code that 
runs client-side and usually only in response to user action. Most gadgets 
don't, say, parse untrusted input from *other* users.
