Wow ... someone saw the Homestar Runner main page and declared "this! this UI is the future!" But any useful platform will inevitably be used to do ridiculously terrible things, and Apple was wrong to ban twenty years' progress in programming language design in a doomed attempt to impose good taste. Designers like this will always be out there and you can't stop them without utterly crippling your platform. As everyone else noted, HTML5 will no doubt be used to get these results even more inefficiently. (BTW, this atrocity works just fine without js. I wasn't expecting that.)
