Pick any random 10 gui developers about what library they used (assuming
they do anything cross-platform) and you'll get more than 1 answer. I'd
be shocked if you get a clear enough majority to suggest 1 that'd make a
big set of people happy.
Sorry, the gui library landscape just doesn't approach being obvious
enough to be in the standard library.
Also, remember, we did try to endorse a standard gui library for D a
while back. It was a disaster on every front.
Yes, that was very unfortunate that basically when you announced DWT
(the old one) as the standard GUI library the development stopped.
