Loose coupling, sensible defaults, etc. +1. I would prefer Ajax-related additions to be a separate subsystem (application, middleware, bunch of related classes, and so on), which should be used only when app developer says so. > So the real productive question at this stage isn't "which Ajax > framework", it's "how can Django make Ajax easier for app developers."

Simple no-nonsense HTML-only web side should be possible. I do think Admin would gain a lot in terms of usability from going Ajax. I do think that reinventing wheels is not necessary, when there are true and tried libraries, which are supported and enhanced without our direct involvement. Thanks, Eugene
