He totally misses the point of seaside. It isn't about slick html generation. It's about keeping the client state entirely in the server through continuations. Seaside would be nearly as powerful if you still had to generate all of the html by concatenating strings. Having said that, I think Seaside is headed the way of the dodo as javascript clients become easier and more powerful.
