> How about a simple example:

All good examples. 

The root problem is that not all the system APIs necessary to implement
replacements for these CMS-based widgets are published interfaces (eg,
how DIRECTXA does it's magic, interfaces with *CCS to do terminal
management for line-mode and console connections, etc). We have
implementations (and sometimes source) that describe how to do these
things, but they're IBM licensed material, and can't be used to build
stuff like this. 

The system management APIs are a start, but not until they get some
exploitation tools built around them to make them easily usable will we
see real tooling get built.
