I've done this. I've done Angular. I've done Ajax calls to templates on the client side. I've done Knockout.

Give me client side data binding (2 way!) any day of the week vs sending the partial back from the server side. You invariably end up with a bunch of shitty glue code that's dealing with the actions AND the display.

Using a framework (Angular, Ember, KO, Backbone) all allow you to separate this spaghetti nightmare into manageable chunks.
