Out of curiosity, what is the benefit of having the browser "compile" the view for display? Web2py's template engine is very fast. I could understand building the view in Python code (like Pyjamas or Qooxdoo), since they provide "widgets" that make interacting with an application better. But I don't understand why we would want to hop on the "JS does everything" bandwagon just to offload view processing.
I'm not putting down the idea, I am genuinely curious if there is some kind of major benefit to something like this that I missed.
