I am trying to create a _javascript_ wrapper for Clutter APIs.

Why create a wrapper if you already have automatic generated bindings thanks to gobject introspection [1]? GNOME Shell [2] UI is written on _javascript_, and can make clutter calls using _javascript_ without problems (example [3])

I was wondering if it would be wise to do so given CSS3 does most of the animation that clutter provides.

Does anyone have any inputs on this? Will a JS wrapper of Clutter be useful in creating exciting webapps than CSS3?

Not sure how do you plan to make Clutter calls from a webapp, but in any case, see my previous comment.
