Provided it ran the same across browsers.

My main gripe isn't Javascript (though I agree, argh), it's the DOM. So yeah, I could choose to write X instead of Javascript, but I still have the most painful of the pain points to deal with.

What's wrong with the DOM? I feel like jQuery abstracts away most of the pain. Do you mean the API itself, or in the abstract sense of laying out web apps like documents?
