I understand the real issue. The post I was responding to didn't seem to, especially not in a context where we're discussing Emacs (or GNU) development of an alternative documentation format. I also object to the shortcut itself. An accurate phrasing would be "server-supplied Javascript", and I don't see why you would encourage use of the rather inaccurate and misleading "client-side Javascript".
