User interface, which one?!?

Hi list! Finally I had the green light to change the UI of our GWT-based application and I'm in front of a huge wall!
Actually the application uses 100% of GWT-widgets for the user interface, my idea is to totally remove the dependency to that widgets to get ready for the future versions of GWT (Jackal?), but which approach is the best one?

- polymer/material design approach need to be discarded (designers don't like that, full stop), so I can't use it!
- gwt-bootstrap i think is just a bootstrap CSS applied over the actuals GWT widget, so could become deprecated soon[1]?
- could be the choice of bootstrap (or any others) "plain-CSS" approach, engaged with gQuery[2] to control the html-widgets from the code-side a right way to create now an UI with an eyes on the "future" of GWT?

Thanks in advance for any contribution to this thread!
