As a user, I've often wished that (nearly) the entire Fl_Widget
interface was virtual.  That's because when I feel that I have
to design some sort of custom widget the result usually ends up being
derived from Fl_Group.  That in turn means that in order to
manipulate my widget in even the simplest of ways (change its
color, for instance), the caller must know its type, which is
quite inconvenient.

Just food for thought, I hope.

Best,
Stan
