> The bigger problem, I think, is the language tie-in. Same issue with WxWidgets, which is otherwise great - AIUI, it was started as a C++98-ish library with support for lots of pre-standard compilers, and a lot of its deep weirdness is a direct consequence of that. OTOH, at least it has good bindings for other languages like wxPython.
