If you are in the need for a rich GUI, you may consider also going the
'ajax`route with SVG, using Adobe SVG Viewer on the browser side.
Since SVG is XML, and the SVG viewers have both POST and GET methods,
you can enable a HTTP communication from within your JavaScript enabled
SVG and have a web application that behaves like a web page as far as
WebObjects is concerned (having WOComponents generating SVG as XML)
and parsing the result in the browser (built into the SVG Viewer).
By going this way, you maintain your server-side security, and avoid
the drawbacks of Java Web Start and nuances of Swing.
Of course javaScript is another issue, and SVG is still crude in terms
of Widget availability, but there are good things being developed out
there. www.carto.net has some interesting examples of using it in
cartographic applications.
Also there is other RPC for JavaScript, that is well tested with SVG:
