It is interesting because I have been reading more and more on the SQL side about how cool "dynamic queries" are - and it always seemed they means sql requests generated by the business layer.
Using dynamic view parameters in VFE I find I can create some pretty potent remote view s and sql eats them well.
I am interested in combining the power of SQL views for stuff like calculated totals that can be maintained as the underlaying tables are changed in order to reduce the amount of stuff that has to come over in a query, but remote views do seems more flexible that approaches that were pushed pretty hard a number of years ago saying Fox/SQLServer apps should completely relie on SPs.

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
