Point 2

A visual component is nothing more than a simple HTML tag annotated with a pre-defined CSS class. The toolkit team is committed to using semantic CSS and the separation of content and presentation. All HTML elements should work as expected. Think of your page in terms of chunks of content, encapsulated into the appropriate components and the toolkit will handle the visual part for you.
