Re: Cell Widgets in GWT 3.0

The problem resides on who is that "one". From the videos I had the sensation the steering committee will just break everything down and wait for the community to provide the missing features (even key features). I hope I'm wrong.

Cell widgets are just normal widgets (cell widgets just use setInnerHTML instead of DOM operations) which use com.google.gwt.dom.client.Element under the hood. This class in turn is a JavaScriptObject which uses JSNI which is not supported in GWT 3.0. 

So once the widget library works with GWT 3.0 then Cell widgets should work as well.

To make that happen one need to figure out a way to update com.google.gwt.dom.client.Element and its dependencies (DOM / Document class and such) to a JsInterop based implementation without breaking APIs so you have a drop-in replacement.
