About GWT opinion in thoughtworks technology radar july 2011

thoughtworks technology radar july 2011, talk negatively about gwt,
these are the 3 reasons:

"First, in many ways, JavaScript is more powerful and expressive than
Java, so we suspect that the generation is going in the wrong
direction."
more powerfull for that?

"Secondly, it is impossible to hide a complex abstraction difference
like that from event-driven desktop to stateless-web without leaky
abstraction headaches eventually popping up"
I can't comment, I do not know the compilation process.

"Third, it suffers from the same shortcomings of many elaborate
frameworks, where building simple, aligned applications is quick and
easy, building more sophisticated but not supported functionality is
possible but difficult, and building the level of sophistication
required by any non-trivial application becomes either impossible or
so difficult it isn't reasonable."
What is meant by functionality not supported?. Program non-trivial
applications with GWT is easier than directly in javascript

What do you think?
