To be honest, I'm not sure how it's going to work. I still need to do a lot of work on theming support in fpGUI and I don't know what the other LCL widgetsets do in such a case? I would guess fpGUI would loose some of it's features when used as LCL-fpGUI widgetset - or maybe I just don't understand the LCL backend fully.

We haven't ported that to fpGUI yet, because it uses Flash OCX for the main part of the screen. I still need to complete the Mozilla Plugin Panel component [*1] before we can port that app, but it will be done.

It's pretty good, but I am sure it can be tweaked for even better performance.
