I really fell in love with REST a while ago. Besides the frontend code being much simpler (Javascript can do a lot of fancy stuff when it receives nicely structured data instead of dumb HTML) another huge benefit was enabling other people with different language backgrounds (Perl in my case) to perform their QA on the resulting API instead of manually clicking through the app (or writing quickly dying Selenium tests due to page modifications). In the meantime even the customer does use the API for integration purposes using curl :) Really happy with the latest developments...
