Fast pixel-level manipulation is critical. See this example:
http://hezamu.virtuallypreinstalled.com/CanvasMandelbrot

It renders the Mandelbrot set with GWTCanvas using rects, and is way too slow 
to be
interesting.

FYI, I extended GWTCanvas to provide getImageData and putImageData, it was 
pretty
simple, see:
http://dev.vaadin.com/svn/contrib/CanvasMandelbrot/src/com/vaadin/contrib/canvas
mandelbrot/client/ui/MouseHandlingCanvas.java
and
http://dev.vaadin.com/svn/contrib/CanvasMandelbrot/src/com/vaadin/contrib/canvas
mandelbrot/client/ui/CanvasPixelArray.java

Works for FF3.5 but for some reason Chrome 3 draws only a black screen. 

The work was done for a client-side Mandelbrot renderer for the Vaadin 
framework. See
the links in the previous message and http://www.vaadin.com for more info.
