Thanks for the suggestion about the plugins. I think you are right they aren't emphasized enough=). As for separating templating from the View it is a good point. In OJ you can use functions to create templates (or partials) since everything is just code. I did find the unification of structure (HTML) and code (JS event bindings) quite helpful because this way the code that needs to find the HTML to bind an event is the very same code that created it. This removes the need to have class names / ids just so you can refer across HTML/CSS/JS boundaries.
