I personally tend to think it's a matter of use cases and possibly 
levels of abstraction.

You can start out building a desktop GUI living on an Xlib like level of 
graphics primitives, you can live on an Eclipse or NetBeans RCP level of 
an actual "application platform" which includes user interfaces on a way 
higher level than just rectangles, all along with things like backend 
services, event listeners and the like (and in best(?) cases even 
abstracts things such as data or filesystem access), and you can go 
somewhere in between. What's wrong having similar choices while building 
web applications as long as you know the benefits and limitations of the 
different approaches? ;)
