I like the Template element, but what I'd really like is a way to escape out of JavaScript and html directly to my JavaScript views. That'd be more convenient than splitting client side view development across the JavaScript logic and html templates that reside somewhere else.

Plus, I think that'd offer caching benefits vs. having to send templates across the wire every time.

Awesome indeed, the thing that always makes me sad though is that you'll always have that IE 8 user which can't see your website properly, sure, you can use Javascript to make up for it, but it kills the whole emotion of using something awesome.

Why does it kill the emotion? With yepnope (and other libs) you can do conditional loading and only use the JS shims on IE8 while the other always-green browsers use the awesome stuff.

I know, and it's awesome but I'd like to just say "Cool! Now I can use this awesome technology and forget about the 100 JS alternatives for doing the same thing", but I still cannot forget about those ;(
