Really? Do you think that users will stop wanting interactive web apps because of some minor technical complaints you have about the stack? Once you start building an app with a lot of interactivity, sending certain states as prerendered pages becomes a huge distraction.

No. I think customers will stop wanting extremely javascript heavy interactive apps when they start to realize that 95% of the time they can have something that is cheaper and more reliable that isn't so javascript heavy. Are you dying for hacker news to become a one page ember app? Didn't think so. Users don't really care about this stuff unless all that javascript brings huge gains (e.g. for a mapping app).
