Non-binding +1 from me too... Eager to have XWatch benefit from the results
of this work :-)

 Hi everybody,
 Jerome suggested yesterday that we could handle the upgrade as follows:
 - use MyGWT widgets library for the web-gwt functionalities (modal dialog
 boxes) since it is a pure java library and its usage only involves changes
 in the web-gwt code
 - if needed, gwt-ext could be used for particular projects using web-gwt
 api and each project's code could be changed accordingly (this would be
 the case for watch).
 Both libraries seem pretty reliable, with active developers and nice
 community, so, from this point of view, they are both superior to gwttk
 that we currently use.
 Here's my +1 for this approach.
 WDYT?
  Hi all,
 we want to upgrade XWiki Web gwt to gwt 1.4 for the 1.3 version so, 
 since
  gwttk does not have a version for gwt 1.4 and we
depend on it for 
 creating
  modal dialogs, we need to replace tk with
something else. A good option 
 is
  gwt-ext, which also can replace gwt-widgets and
provides some more nice 
 ui
  objects and client functionality (like date
parsing -- which we get from
 gwt-widgets for the moment).
 The trouble with gwt-ext is that it requires ext javascript library to
 run, which means that any gwt application needs to import, besides the
 gwt.js file, some ext javascript files. Since the modal dialogs are
 defined in the web-gwt module (so our gwt-ext dependency is there) and 
 we
  cannot import the ext javascript files at that
level, the only solution 
 is
  to rely on the application using web-gwt to
include right all required
 files. It doesn't seem to me as good practice but I cannot figure out 
 how
  big of an issue it is (since that application
already has some rules to
 obey, js files to include, etc to have gwt working).
 WDYT?
