'not sure about that. Different widget sets have completely different
geometry management policies (Motif "Forms", Gtk "Tables" etc...). If
you want
something homogeneous across window systems and platforms, and still use
native geometry management, you would have to abstract these policies into a
layer built on top of these systems, which is a PITA to do IMHO.
On the other hand, it seems much easier to simply do the geometry
management by hand from the begining.
