Maybe there aren't that much. But why exclude them if it isn't necessary?

But you also need people to code the toolkit. That's not the main public.

For example, I won't code something that will only run under Windows.
Ofcourse I understand that many people run Windows and I won't force them
to switch to Linux just because I use it. That's why I think cross-
platform development is so important.
