Yeah, existing GUI libraries tend to make heavy use of inheritance, which Rust doesn't support very well. I have high hopes for a Rust-native GUI library being the goto cross-platform UI library at some point. But that's probably still 2-5 years off at this point.

Oh, wow. It looks horrible[1] in some cases. Even worse than most C++/Boost constructions.
