IEEE working group P1295.2 is working on the Open Toolkit Environment,
which is basically a Standard for the OLIT (Open Look Intrinsics Toiolkit)
API.  There is another group (P1295.1?) doing the same for Motif.

You may or may not believe that these toolkits are portable, 
object-oriented, good, elegant, modern, useful, etc.
