What I'm proposing is more like a subset of AWT than like Swing. Swing is overkill for our needs, IMO. Is it html/css friendly?
It can be, if correctly implemented. What you would probably want to do is to build the cell layout using tables, rather than CSS, but *only* to define the relationships among the cells. CSS emitted by the layout manager would be used to set the spacial attributes of the rows and cells. The theme would have its own CSS for things like text indentation, fonts, colors, shading, borders, and so forth that don't affect how the various fields are actually laid out relative to one another. In other words, the table only enforces that "there are three cells vertically, and the center one contains two horizontal cells in a 75/25 arrangement. The rest is up to CSS.
