Here's one vote for Gtk. Currently it might need some love to fix up for recent 
julia changes---presumably you (or someone) could fix it up in a couple of 
hours.

Once I finish with my array work in base julia, I'm hoping to get back into 
graphics this summer and switch all of my packages to Gtk.

P.S. I was just using Qwt as an example of something I had played with a long 
time ago that provided yet more evidence that Cairo (which both Gtk.jl and 
Tk.jl rely on for drawing) is slow. But there seem to be other possible 
solutions (still in exploratory phases) for faster drawing that might work 
well with Gtk.
