Remember back when some sites used to do their entire UI in flash, completely ignoring standard UI conventions of the web, breaking the back button and deep linking, hijacking the scrollbar and making printing an entire page impossible? Let's not go back to that please.

What's that got to do with replacing JS? These platforms will not render their own graphics via canvas, for the most part, but just interface with the browser APIs. They're just to ditch the JS language, not browser tech/UI.
