I'll summarize my views on all of this.
We keep making the same damn mistakes time after time.
Especially with GUI's.
Stop trying to make GUI toolkits! Seriously just stop.
WE DO NOT HAVE THE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR IT. Yes I know that is
yelling but it is true. We're still a long way off having
proper image manipulation. Or even basic OpenGL wrapping
functions. DirectX don't even joke.
Agree to some extent. But we can make small steps. At least if we
figure out right architecture.
TLDR: We think far too big and never actually work with a clear
strategic path towards a goal in mind.
Can you write briefly somewhere an analysis for gui development?
Or possibly use add ideas/comments here:

I don't have too much time for gui as I'm currently in the
process of including Phobos proposal modules into drafting
library.
