Anything below IE9 would be hard to support,
by the time Dart and Apache Flex mature, it may indeed be no longer a very big
issue.
For Flex, you could do the opposite of Dart,Dart will use the DartVM if the
browser supports it,and fall back to js for others
Flex could target recent browsers, and switch to swf for older ones.
Might be less of a nightmare to support?
@Christophe, looking nice already, I love the web UI myself, looking forward to
dig in some more
