I recently came to a similar opinion[1] of Angular like both of you though I was evaluating AgnularDart.
I decided to stick with plain Dart mostly of the reasons you mentioned (JavaScript ecosystem feeling like a mess). Polymer does look great but feels a bit unstable (at least for Dart).
What I would really love to see is a simple front-end framework handling:
- routing
- view encapsulation
- basic animations (when views are altered/loaded)
I ended up basically doing the above by hand in plain Dart. The only part that I found ready made and working nicely so far is the routing part[2] from Angular.

- back-end requests - preferably swap-in-out (http, websockets)
