The whole problem is that "web apps" are a stupid idea. I can understand why they people wanted to make them, but web pages and applications are two different things, and mashing them together was always going to give a substandard result IMHO.
JS might be fine for adding simple dynamic elements, creating a new text box when you click "reply" for example, but I don't think it was ever meant to turn entire web pages into into pseudo applications. If you need an application, Java was a more sensible compromise: An actual executable (or something close to) which you can load over the web, instead of forcing the web page itself into becoming something it wasn't designed to be.
