Rich User Interface for Web Applications is no more just a desirable factor.

The statement is true not just for the web application on the World Wide Web but also for the enterprise applications in the Intranet World.
The trends in User Interface keep changing and so does the demand for better and richer User Controls. The developers, who need to be spending time on complex algorithms and Business Logic, end up spending time on the various User Controls like Tree View, Grid View, and File Explorer etc. The fact is that the UI controls are pretty generic and can be used across multiple applications.

For every project, developers have to re-invent the wheel. This ends up in increased time to market and a reduce Return on Investment for the clients.
