Yes- some sort of scheme whereby the same controls get used in the layout
but dimensions, colours, positions and such can be "switched" between
platforms, similar to how constants can be defined per platform. This should
be done in a visual fashion, not through wads of constants.

Cross platform is the NR 1 selling point of RB. Everything should be done to
maximise this strength.  I guess once RB "coocoa" arrives things might
improve apple wise too.
