On its face this makes sense. On the other hand, "move to the web" is
not an easy choice for a large business operation because of the
relatively short life-span of the web's software. With a large
organization's 10 to 15 year development cycle, moving to the next new
best way every 3 or 4 years just not compute.
For instance... jQuery is in decline. GWT is gone. Liferay is gone.
xml is in the dumper. The mouse is being replaced with finger moves,
eye-control is on the horizon. This is all great stuff and is a
vibrant and exciting, but if you're a manager who wants to ship product,
bill product, meet payroll, and pay bills then providing video games for
the IT Department is way down your to-do list.
That's why I believe there is a strong need for us programmers to figure
out what we can do with 5250 to accommodate a new generation of users
who will never understand which is the F16 key. Yes; we can offer
check boxes, radio buttons, and dropdowns without being disloyal to our
heritage.
Wanting a reliable double-click is a reasonable expectation.

I think it is better to move to web, rather than improve green screen.
No matter what you do, green screen will look old.
