To position a widget you invoke a backend function on a widget
handle with desired coordinates.
by the way. what is "backend widget handle" for OpenGL, for
example? ah,
i see, your idea of "backend" is that backend implements the
whole widget
system.
Yes, the point is to make frontend agnostic about backend
implementation details. If you want to write entire widget system
from scratch, like FLTK, that goes to a backend.
