I really don't like the thought of writing a complex gui as a bunch of
glyph instantiators either. For things that will be going in the gutter
this is doable, but writing something like the `customize' interface from
sawmill would be ... not fun.
You can write a high-level API on top of a low-level API. This is
what widget.el does, can't you use the widget.el framework to provide
a more convenient interface to a glyph based implementation?
