Re: GWT for Canvas

IMHO, Flash was a great solution that was killed by politics and corporate short signtedness.  Yes, implementing controls is a big job but:

A.  It only has to be done once.

B.  There are many open-source packages that already do this that can be leveraged off of.

The benefits I espoused in my original message make this worth it IMO.  Additionally. trying to make HTML code portable across various browser types, versions, an unknown future, and unknown politics is a constant and risky business.  Divorcing from HTML drastically reduces all of these problems.

That also means you have to reimplement everything that comes for free with the browser (accessibility, focus management, adaptive layout, etc.) This is even worse than Flash, except for the plugin less experience.
