Answer 2

Most browsers still do not support these technologies without plugins, therefore direct support is not available.

WebSockets requires support from the server also, once again most servers do not support it yet. for WebSockets in GWT You could download this and use it:

For the HTML5 Canvas look here:

Answer 3

Yes, they have nothing to do with GWT.
