What if we just use plain HTML for windows and launch the users browser of
choice just like we do on UNIX? I am sure we could write some code that would
allow us to have contextual help for the different dialogs... If we do this then
the same help could be used for most platforms and it can be changed only where
necessary... this is something we could shoot for for the next major release
after 2.1 (3.0 <grin>)...
