Re: Why does GWT's API differ so much from the Javascript one?

Which API do you find "so much different" from the native one? I don't think com.google.gwt.dom.client.* can be less different that the API it's making available to the GWT Java world. Same for com.google.gwt.canvas, com.google.gwt.geolocation, com.google.gwt.media, com.google.gwt.regexp, com.google.gwt.storage, and com.google.gwt.xhr.

Event handling has to be different for various reasons (prevent memory leaks being one of them: http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/wiki/DomEventsAndMemoryLeaks )
