have written cool user interfaces in Plan9:

 Hello, I am participating in Google Summer of Code.
 After searching your ideas page, I was interested in widget library. Have
 you heard anything of IMGUI http://www710.univ-lyon1.fr/%7Eexco/ZMW/? I
 personally think it is a very beautiful way of expressing user interfaces.
 What do you think of making Plan 9 widget library an implementetion of IMGUI
 philosophy?

 in general, i'm all for ui development.  it's not a solved problem
 in plan 9 at all.  i think the question is, what can you do in a
 summer?

 by the way, take a look at nemo's octopus http://lsub.org/ls/octopus.html

Plan 9 already has a widget philosophy, it just needs to be applied to a
library (supposedly).
