Re: GWT is for "apps" — right? But what's about static pages? (GWT's Future Plans...)

GWT isn't the problem, you can easily make a non-CEO-friendly apps with jquery, sencha, or any other js framework.
The problem is that search engines do not crawl AJAX apps yet. The proposal to make ajax crawlable is a quick solution to make them work with old crawling infrastructure. 
I really hope to see a more real solution in the near future.

I would like to make a related observation although, only tangentially related to the initial poster's questions and grievances:

Even though GWT started off as a toolkit for developing desktop-style applications for the web, I think it has slowly transformed beyond the said scope. 

As an example consider, google hotel search  at http://www.google.com/hotelfinder/. Evidently, this has been built using GWT and evidently it is closer to a web-style application than a desktop-style application.
