Please no. The web has vastly more utility than version 2.0 of client/server hell, with its entombed content that's only accessible through exactly one brain-damaged app which you can't improve. If javascript devours the web, it will be the second greatest disaster of our industry (second only to walled gardens devouring open tools).

Too late. It's already trying to solve two problems, and doing it poorly.

I'd like to see the two problems (application platform, interlinked document platform) split cleanly.
