Best way to go for ajax / UI interface design and Ror?

Tryed several JS and java frameworks for adding a nice set of UI elements to ror applications. I know there is Jquery, Jquery widgets for Ror, The jquery UI but all those lack in some way or the other.

Would there be a really cool and nice degradable framework out there that is mayor enough to use as a foundation for certain cms based applications where you want to mimic a non- browser app UI elements?

If you know any good that go nice with ruby and maybe even have some github ruby support please let us know!

I found Vaadin - An open platform for building web apps in Java but that needs a tomcat or java server to run. Looks promising though

Thanks,

This looks very cool. You use it yourself? What about rails 3 and merb integration wait for that?

Okay my reply above was a bit to hasty. Openlaszio is very great for rich UI.

But my needs have changed due to time issues to look for the best way to implement jquery inside ror rails projects, Any advise on that? I found netzke but not sure if that is of any use when rails 3 comes. definitly will look into openlaszio lateron.
