That's a bit of an over-generalisation.  Most apps on the OpenSolaris
desktop *do* use it.  (Even Mozilla used to, although we seem to have
decided not to carry that patch across into Firefox.)  So perhaps you
ought to clarify exactly what class of applications you're interested in
solving the problem for...?
