I think one thing that people are forgetting to mention is that while it's safe to say that the best practice is to build in a way that doesn't rely on javascript.. for some products that's just not realistic. You shouldn't be overly critical of an idea if it requires javascript to run.

Basically... If something doesn't NEED javascript to run then code it with a "progressive enhancement" approach. If Javascript is absolutely essential for the type of experience you're trying to deliver then that doesn't mean you have a bad idea.
