Don't you feel it would be valueable to have something like Santa's gift bag that will allow rapid gui development? (many already existing gui components) or is it something for the next app_kit in R2 ?
ofcourse, the library would not use fixed positions, and be relative, font sensitive, and all the goodies u want, plus already made fast gui components.. i believe it's something the obos project should be in charge of, since it's not an app, it's closer to a system library. (and would provide one standard way)
