We try to keep DirectFB as small and modular as possible. I don't see how a complete application framework fits into this. It should be possible to develop all this on top of DirectFB and we are willing to do the necessary changes if there are any but I don't see why the scope of the DirectFB package should be extended in such a way. > Actually I have not had the chance yet.

There only needs to be a very simple (and thus probably quite secure) master application that accesses the hardware directly. All other applications don't need root privileges.
