You should try Backbone.js. While I do appreciate your general sentiment about the cultures, you should try it first. It's not really as big a deal as you're making it out to be. It's actually pretty small and doesn't do that much. You can make views using lightweight templates or not, your choice. The main issue in my view is that most of the examples out there are just too simplistic. But it's too light to be considered an indoctrination platform like Rails or something like that.
