I think this would be better accompanied by another column with different  
capabilities. I'm sure there must be either a reason for it, or a bloated  
implementation of some specific feature.

Fonts, i18n, skin, widget set, plain X11 library use, desktop integration,  
multiple windows, character sets, do all of them support all of these?
