Immediate mode APIs are really last century. I worked with Borland
Pascal, C++ GraphUtils and X Windows/OSF Motif, a tiny little bit of
QT/KDE for a while, and of course Java AWT, Swing, JFC. Every user
interface is moving to a unified scene graph model of 2D, 2.5D, or 2D
and 3D.
If you looking for something to blame, then Cupertino, Apple, iPhone,
iPod Touch. Unfortunately they are leading the wave at this moment in
time.
