Funny you mention that, because we've spent a lot of time thinking about GWT and authorization...and I think it would be a good idea for a next post, so stay tuned! Great suggestion, Eric. On a recent project we rolled our own simple MVP framework, similar to gwt-presenter. I like how they manage parameters though (e.g. "brand=Nike")...their PlaceRequest seems to make this very easy. Thanks for the comment! Thanks Casper.

You should write another piece, this time on GWT authorization and authentication. It baffles me why such an important item is not build into GWT. +1.
