So, if not X, then how about some higher (or eperhaps lower?) layer
libraries (qtk? Qt? Gecko?) ported so that porting the 10 (or 100)
best known FOSS packages (whatever they are) would become more
possible?
                               
How about a project to take something like Firefox and restructure the
whole sw so that best modules would be kept and other modules re-
implemented /dev/draw way and Rio way?

Or is the real problem really the GUI? Or something else, like the GNU
toolchain needed to compile a typical FOSS project?
