Take it from someone who is in exactly the same position, move to WPF and clickonce. I have found that you can cut and past your views from SL to WPF with a minimum of fiddling. I moved a small app (14 views) in less than a week and that was the first one so there was a little research involved.

I've been dipped into the current HTML/JS/CSS development stack and it still feels like being dipped in sh*t. Having said that I can't see any viable option to MVC/SP development if you need a web interface, you have no idea how thoroughly pissed off I am with MS.

As MS has mooted 2020 as the retirement horizon you may be Ok with 40 months, I am looking at the same time frame and I'll walk away from the whole banking industry!
