in reply to TK or wxWidgets (wxWindows)?

I've used Tk several times, probably because it was the first one I came across.. (I'd not heard of Wx then, Gtk existed but looked complicated, and Prima hadn't been born..) I find it fits my expectations of how things should work quite well, (my initial GUI-writing experience is with VB) and can be used to get something running fairly quickly.

For my current project, I looked at Wx for a while, it didnt take me too long to get a window with menus up and running, by cannabalizing the various examples.. But the complex stuff seems not to fit my mindset, or be missing, so I went back to Tk. (Maybe one of these days.. )

After reading this and pondering my current app, I'm now wondering how hard it would be to extract/isolate the GUI specific bits, and offer different interfaces.. Anyone ever tried this?
