What is the difference between wants and desires, btw?
Does the user have the knowledge to know what (s)he needs?
You should have the professional quality and courage to weigh those needs 
and desires against the robust quality and servicability of the product.

User and programmer should learn eachother's language and possibilities and 
requirements. This process should be lead by the professionality of the 
programmer, as for her or him this process should be innate.

And using simple, understandable, cross-browser reliable code not only is 
good for the user's budget, but also makes your work better and easier.

So methinks the clientside code approach for things that could be better or 
just as good done on the server is a bad thing, and emulating different 
pages by clientside code should be avoided, even when giving it fancy names 
like a 'timeline'.
