Are you implying that JS developers know more about UI/UX than others? Most websites have horrible usability, ranging from "everything in CSS popups!" to "every site uses a different widget toolkit, deficient in new and exciting ways"..... I hope I just don't understand your comment.

Yeah GUI widgets done in js in general for some reason have really poor quality and no attention to subtle details that make up the polished experience on desktop. Well at least they take 2 KB instead of 5 KB gzipped, that's totally a win.

I am not a big fan of the visual UI/UX either. My point is that there is more to the UI/UX than widgets and popups. With JS on hardware, we might have a new way to design HCI other than those pretty wireframes in Photoshop. IMHO, JS is a laguage designed for APIs, which is good for exploring ideas and protyping. There is always a way to push the performance to another layer, like CSS boosted by GPU.
