The problem may be that it doesn't work everywhere. What I find exciting about parrot is that (it sounds like to me) you'll be able to run a perl6 file anywhere that has parrot, much like Java. I think what Markus is getting at is for there to be a way to display graphics through parrot everywhere parrot runs as well. Yes, different modules are extremely important, because the programmer deserves a choice, but some modules run someplaces, others run other places - it'd be a good thing to have the absolute bare essentials run everywhere.
