That's basically what I have been doing as well. I have a platform.window object that basically just wraps some SDL into a nice interface using properties, but I only allow the one object accessed with platform.window rather than allowing users to create more windows (platform.window (game.platform.window technically) is just created when a game is created.
Yes, and you don't really need all that many properties or event listeners for a basic canvas window: width, height, onResize, onClose, onPreRedraw, onRedraw (realtime), fullscreen…?
If the filerequester/menubar is optional then it should work out for most platforms too with some opportunities for code sharing between them:
iOS: runtime in Objective-C++ Android NDK: runtime in C++ http://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html Windows Phone 8 Native Code: runtime in C++ http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/jj681687(v=vs.105).aspx Chrome/Pepper Native Client/webGL: runtime in C++ https://developers.google.com/native-client/dev/
I really do need to clean that code up and maybe just release it all...
