It seems to me the bindings are the symptoms and not the causes:
the problem, to my humble opinion, is that for whatever reasons,
we have a **lot** of toolkits trying to reinvent powder over and
over. In Windows/Mac there's no problem since more-or-less they
have standard controls, and anyone not using them is because they
bypass them pursuing multi-platform support. In the nixes is more
complicated since there were never standard/unified
controls/guidelines. There are people who thinks diversity is a
plus and there others stating standardization is the way forward.
Like it or not, that is we have on the nixes.
