Still, i don't think your comments are really valid in today's world.
You mean like the {{hidden}} template series? How long that took to
finally work?
Worse, folks trying to use the classes directly, resulting in the contents
being centered, with the bullets and numbering removed:
<div class="NavFrame collapsed">
<div class="NavHead">Categories</div>
<div class="NavContent">

Believe me, user edits relying on JS, even where the JS isn't directly
accessible, are not really ready for prime time today.
Take a look at 'web 2.0-style' applications,
such as Gmail or Google
Maps. Stuff like that would simply be impossible in a web browser
without depending on proprietary technology such as Flash.
Sure, and do you know how many months it took to get that to work, or
how many folks from the application security group to review?
