GWT DOES have data binding; that is what I was saying. See here:
For Data Access, something kind of sort ok like EOF, they have the "RequestFactory" thing:
"RequestFactory is an alternative to GWT-RPC for creating data-oriented services. RequestFactory and its related interfaces (RequestContext and EntityProxy) make it easy to build data-oriented (CRUD) apps with an ORM-like interface on the client. It is designed to be used with an ORM layer like JDO or JPA on the server, although this is not required." -- from http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/DevGuideRequestFactory.html
This likely can be made to work with EOF.
With these additions last year, I don't see any big pieces missing from GWT.

I tend to agree but GWT lacks WO (or Cocoa) architectural goodness that makes us write maintainable and internally beautiful apps.
For example, they did not integrate MVC support from the start (because you know, it's a toolkit not a framework...), they added stuff to lead you to eventually implement "MVP".
And as you said, it has no data binding support (some libraries provide some). It has "Outlet" support though.
If you can give up Java and html, Flex seems a reasonable choice.
Also Cappucino 0.9 is out and becomes very sexy with full binding support as we know it.
