Martin DeMello:

One of the most interesting facets of a desktop GUI system is how easy it makes it to go off the beaten track, particularly how well you can add “first class” components to the system. (Using ‘first class’ here to mean ‘on an equal footing with the widgets supplied by the toolkit’). Also, as a ruby programmer, I’d naturally rather not drop down into C (or Java) to do this.
