Will the XML even stick around after having instantiated the GUI?
You mean if the representation is "live", so you can change the GUI by
changing the representation, like you can with HTML+DOM+Javascript? I
thought that was a requirement?
SWT has already done this work.
Some modifications of the GUI is easier to do on a generic
representation like the XML/HTML DOM, e.g. copying a sub-tree. In
addition, SWT is a bit restrictive since it doesn't have setters for all
properties, in particular it doesn't allow changing the style bits.
This is useful:

Thanks for the link! I keep discovering these bugzilla entries too late...
