Ultimate++ is a window less GUI toolkit. Everything is written from 
"scratch" and only the TopWindow has a native handle. They are working 
on skinning in the latest dev releases (which btw have some nice 
features and are pretty stable).

Harmonia seems to do some of the same things Ultimate++ does.

And yeah QTF is insane :P
