You're more than welcome to write a peer implementation for your new
favorite toolkit, but *I'm* not going to help. :) Writing a peer
implementation is far from easy -- it's an extremely time consuming
process that can drive you insane.  Once Jim and I finish with the GTK
peers, there would have to be some _really_ important reason for us to
start work on peers for a different widget set.

I understand way too much of the internals of Xlib, GDK, and GTK --
more than I ever wanted to know, and I'll know even more by the time
we're finished.  Writing a peer implementation requires that you
become one with the toolkit.
