Along these lines, please consider ATK (the Andrew Tool Kit) as a UI
toolkit.  Not only is it free and available on the X tapes, but it can
be made to work with windowing systems other than X (I use it this way
almost every day).  It's pretty powerful, especially re: multimedia
data streams.  I'd *really* like to see a version of GNU Emacs that
uses ATK (and I don't have time to work on it at the moment).
