Anyone thought of using a file system instead of the actual
libcontrol design? I mean, stuff like:

mkdir /mnt/gui/panel
echo 'align center' >/mnt/gui/panel/ctl
mkdir /mnt/gui/panel/button
echo 'press me' >/mnt/gui/panel/button/label
cat /mnt/gui/panel/events
and the like.

that would be cool to build silly guis for things like the ipaq
with just silly shell scripts behind the gui.
