That's a good point.  I mentioned previously that Ext js UI widgets bind to locally stored data collections.  And in one case I tested a Grid that allowed users to change the content of cells, kind of like a spreadsheet.  Rows were changed in the local data store, initially.  But you had to click the Submit button to synchronize the local data store with the server.  That can add complexity and vulnerability to the synchronization process.
