I thought Rust desktop UI framework/libraries etc are still very much a work in progress.

  Exactly, which is why "Rust and Go here a big game changers in this way" doesn't apply in this context.

    give them some time. And there's a Go API bridge for Qt

      So the proposition to have a better UI done in Go to beat Java is to use C++. Well, I can also call C++ from Java. In fact, once upon a time Qt had official Java bindings.

        I agree with you, having a poorly documented qt binding which may break on any update is not the ideal way for a modern language to have GUI functionality. Java is good in the sense that it has JavaFX, a modern and rather full featured GUI framework available for it. Rust, Go, etc is very far from being recommended for production desktop apps with GUIs.
