Do you mean:

1) it's a single page app

2) you're using ERB fragments (or something) as "templates"

3) MVC fat-client

Is this... more or less it?

It's not a single-page app—at least not in the traditional sense. Only in the sense that we don't need to reload assets with each page change.

We are using a dash of Backbone here and there for cases where interaction speed is of utmost importance, but most of what you download over the wire is HTML.

Does the Sheet paradigm supports back-button? (just curious) if so, is it via normal browser history or AJAX '#' trickery?
