Currently the test_shell uses GTK to create a basic rendering for
Chromium.

What are the plans so far on how to port the Views UI layout layer to
linux?
Will a widget toolkit such as GTK be used? Or maybe just use a more
direct approach such as XLib.
Using XLib to directly communicate with X server might provide some
extra speed much like using the Win32 API for the Windows version of
Views, but XLib might be a bit too low level.

I'd like to see the wheels get rolling on porting Views over to linux.
This will be a major leap in getting Chrome running on linux. I'm
interesting in helping contribute code for porting views. So if anyone
has suggestions, ideas, or comments please post them. Let's get some
ideas flowing.
