I've used jmap2 a bit. It's really nice to have a jQuery-like way of playing with maps (as well as geocoding, etc) - but as was said before, hard to say if it is worth it for the added overhead and restrictions it places on your code.
That said, I think there is room for a more extensive jQuery solution that handles directions, map manipulation, complex polygons and overlays in an easier way.
