I still think XML+XSLT->SVG is way ahead of C++ for this type of application (and I'm assuming a great deal about what Chris is trying to do, so I could be way off). formsPlayer and Sidewinder are entirely written in C++, so it's certainly our language of choice. But my guess is that in an application like this you'd spend most of your time just manipulating a DOM. Sure you can do that in C++, but why bother? There must be better things to do with our time!
