Better would be to isolate the GUI parts so we can swap out GUIs at
build time.  I prefer Lesstif, but a Win32 GUI would be appropriate on
Windows, and a gEDA bundle should use GTK.  That was part of my
inspiration behind the user-customizable menu stuff - the menu
interface consists of one call to just "build me a menu here".

But this is not the list to discuss such a project.
