Hey Aaron, I have a little UI window and dockbar Class that I created you may be interested in. It is only about 300 lines, is 500x (slight exaggeration) more performant than Mocha, does not rely on canvas (thought you could use it for rendering I suppose) and has some pretty cool things under the covers that Mocha lacks. The script does not do the slide bar desktop stuff mocha does, but i figured content inside the windows would be up to the user. I will post it on the blog soon so you guys can take a look. If it ends up not being of interest no worries, just throwing it out there ;)
