I must note that there is a big step between "having and idea of how it works" and "use it productively". That's where difference between Erlang and JS on the server side is the most sharp. When I offered my definition of non-nicheness, I had big inter-disciplinary projects in my mind. Something like online IDE, for example. Or electric scheme editor. You cannot cover all IDE needs with only PHP and JS. Most of logic will be in other languages and I think that the use of PHP/JS will be shrunk to non-irritating levels. But I reserve my right to be wrong. And thank you for langpop.com. It is worth a look.
