How would that be significantly worse than web browser -> web
application -> database? Is CocoaJava what Apple supports as Cocoa
using Java? If so, it isn't as supported as native Objective-C (I
thought I heard it was being phased out, too). Besides, Cocoa
development (in Objective-C) is fun. But if you have to access a DB,
Cayenne is the best option currently, so it would be a nice option for
native OS X applications, too.
Just my rambling thoughts ...
