Just like you I prefer to think that I'm not (hopelessly) stupid or
incompetent but that I want a kind of useable 'official' gui library
written in D, not a wrapper around C wrapper around C++ wrapper around
native API. At least a basic set of widgets. I'm trying to use DFL but
it seems to be developed and maintained by one person, is Windows-only
and very alpha. And the dead DWT, harmonia and others are not a
choice.

PS. Gregor, you are one of the smartest people I've ever met, no
doubt.
