We've built several GWT integrated Django applications where I work. My #1 tip would be to spend a lot of time in the Chrome developer tools. Secondly, use GWT as a front-end only since the Java integration is designed to create server side servlets to pair with the client side-UI GWT code. You'll be using Django for the backend and we've gotten that working great in several projects. Basically use the front-end sections of GWT only. Lastly, I would make sure you have a really good reason to use GWT over jQuery.
Personally the cross browser compatibility argument that GWT provides isn't enough of an argument. The best argument in favor of using GWT would be project size. Because of the complexity curve of GWT very large project (multi-man, multi-month) projects would benefit from the rigor and code organization required when you use GWT. Here<https://github.com/bmbouter/Opus>is a django+GWT project we implemented; maybe it will show some examples for you.
