Submission title should probably have "for CRMs" at the end, otherwise it sounds like some generic API framework for anything. Nice idea though!

Go to a slow website on Chrome. Open dev tools and turn on "enable paint flashing", you'll see a seizure inducing light show of re-rendering... It's certainly a huge problem for real world applications
