Well, yes. There is always a way... remember PDB, it worked completely 
without javascript. But that is not what people consider a good web app
nowadays. And we get often critics for not being "cool" enough.

With all respect, but I do not find it appropiate to come up with a

on the new interface are aware of the methods mentioned in the article.

What about showing a code snippet that shows how it could work better?
