Right -- but there are some tools that do sorta-like VB does by writing
some template code.

There was one early one named
  SimpleGladeApp
And another named gazpacho
  http://gazpacho.sicem.biz/

I'm not sure but I think the latter is a replacement for the former
which may have been abandoned.

I have done nothing with either, really, other than toy programs.
