Trivially and trivially :). I would be very careful to call it so, but Emacs has
relatively modest GUI demands. Some things are maybe not so difficult to emulate
but some other would be harder. For example menus and buttons are not so hard to
emulate for gtk toolkit, but tooltips would need quite some work to look same. I
don't know, some other toolkits might need more work. No idea, but I would not
aim for fully themeable renderer. In that case it is better to just use gtk and
to render with gtk everywhere, but than you get people who prefer Motif to Gtk
and in practice it will probably never happen.
