In other words, if you want a cross-platform GUI toolkit, simply restrict yourself to one platform and you can have it ??

I know there is a book out about programming user interfaces in XUL, but honestly, I don't really see that XUL is the way to go, if it dosen't support Win32 or Mac, as these two platforms are the platforms where the users are.

For Win32, there actually is something like XUL btw, called HTA (HTML Application) - IE displays these in a window of their own, and you can program them in JavaScript (and propably PerlScript as well), or you can simply use the HTA as your user interface and have your main program docked to the application via Win32::OLE WithEvents.

But don't propose yet another open source brainchild that is supposed to be there-in-the-next-release. At least Linux celebrates the 5th year in sequence of "next year Linux will be ready for the desktop".
