The recommendations i have come across are that you develop web parts, event handlers, custom field types, site definition templates etc on VS.NET on the server.

I agree it is not really a great way of doing things, especially when you work more than 2-3 on a project, but so far this is how its done.

You also get full step-by-step debugging when working on the server.

You can however create for example web parts remotely by adding sharepoint assembly to your project (remember to set Copy Local to false) if you build the web part from scratch, but if you use the extensions alot happens "under the hood" such as creating a solution (WSP file) and deploying this on your server. This is done with STSADM.exe that only runs on the server, so in that case you need to work directly on the server.
