But you rely on XML.
Second the builder (ie generating the XML) is not the problem as far as I know.
but more how to assemble the widget and make sure that the layout
are kept or specified.

Then how using an external tools can make sure that this tool got well the way 
layoutMorph
and other works?

I do not understand why we want portability. 
Please note that the VWspec are as portable as XML between Smalltalk they are 
just arrays (
probably we would get a problem for the UI.Node notation but this is not the 
problem.

But this is exactly what is done in VW with windowsSpec you can get a builder 
(which builds
the application UI) either for your desktop or for VWWave (long time ago before 
seaside even if less powerful).
