When you consider the fact, that it look almost 20 years for typical users to get used to graphical user interface (although some of them still have problems, I’ll tell you), by when they will get to all the fancy Web 2.0 Ajax-driven thingies like dynamic dropdowns, in-place editing etc.

On the other side, why we are still limited to 5 types of primitive widgets in the browser in the standard web form? It looks like a dinosaur teleported to 25th century.
