If someone is willing to work on that, sure.=C2=A0 Otherwise, it'= ;s just
another pipe dream.

(Sorry for being blunt, but I had my share of endless discussions
about these issues that led nowhere.)

U= nderstandable.

I was curious because to me, wr= iting the GUI part for each platforms is much more work than writing it in = Qt and maybe adapting some parts for special cases... and given I saw a dis= cussion about targeting Wayland, I thought it'd be better to target som= ething that was designed to be cross-platform.

Any= way, you are right about the fact that it is useless to discuss this withou= t showing some work in that direction :-)
