I know this sounds bitter, but I read this comment and my interpretation (of the ideology, not how you said it) is: "Our shitty slow and poorly architected mess of document and script languages is too slow for good application performance, everyone, start floundering around looking for some technology to squeeze another inch of performance out of everything so we can maybe hopefully make our awful mess work finally" It is probably my bitterness towards XML, but I feel like the whole "use-a-document-markup-language-as-an-application-builder" is making people do crazy things, and not in a good way - it is happening because html is entrenched, and it is the only truly device-agnostic framework right now. So everyone tries to make it work for everything. I just see it as a sad circumstance is all.
