This is a consequence of the unfortunate intersection between C++ and Javascript.
UI design is an iterative affair and compile debug cycles just never seem to end. It is why you get all this meaningless requests to remove this tiny feature or that tiny feature. Apparently every little thing affects compile times and you have all these so called "developers" trying to gain attention or make some name for themselves by proposing insignificant things all the time.
As for Javascript UIs - well they are all built on C++.
If you can't get the C++ right, how can you get Javascript that depends on it right.
Says Joe Amstrong - "I think the only computer languages one needs are C and Erlang, don't you think so?
