Qt/GTK/FLTK/whatever.)
when you come up with a way to do that, please do let us know. this
has been on the table for at least 8 years and no acceptable solutions
have ever emerged. they either offer too little control to the plugin
developer, or simply cannot integrate with the event loop of the host.
Thanks! I didn't realize this was the quest for the Holy Grail of plugin
GUI. :-)
